You're looking through Oxygen 
to read this! 


UT the gas your eye pierces—the gas you inhale at every 
breath—is but the raw material for Linde Oxygen. 


Every trace of physical contamination must be eliminated, every 
chemical impurity removed before atmospheric oxygen is pure 
enough to meet Linde requirements. 


To that end a great army of Linde scientists are constantly at 
work rigidly maintaining the high standard of Linde purity. To 
their efforts is due the absolute uniformity for which Linde Oxygen 
is famous.

will mark an epoch in the number of marine events, hap- - 


C6 A MERICAN Marine Week,” November 14 to 19, inclusive, 


pening simultaneously, which are of interest to the ship- 
ping and shipbuilding industry. But this is not all, the public will 
be given a chance to see, through exhibits and lectures at the 
Marine Exposition, how important our merchant marine actually 
is to our national prosperity. 


The Marine Exposition, which will be held under the auspices 
of the Marine Equipment Association of America at the Central 
Mercantile Building, Sixth Avenue, 18th to 19 Streets, New York 
City, will be open throughout the entire week. Practically every- 
thing of interest relating to shipping and shipbuilding will be 
exhibited. Professional men will have an added inducement to 
attend the convention of the Society of Naval Architects and 
Marine Engineers. Practical men will have the opportunity to 
inspect models and full sized pieces of equipment. The buyer and 
the seller of everything that goes into a ship will have a chance to 
get thoroughly acquainted. 


The convention of the Society of Naval Architects and Marine 
Engineers will be held on November 17 and 18. On the afternoon 
of the 17th there will be a joint session with the Institute of Elec- 
trical Engineers, and on the evening of the 18th the annual ban- 
quet at the Waldorf-Astoria. 


The American Society of Marine Draftsmen will also hold 
their convention during the week. This is an enthusiastic body 


of men whose influence is bound to be felt in the shipbuilding of 
the future. The coming gathering will mean much to them, both 
from a social and from an educational standpoint. 


Arrange your plans now to be in New York during the big 
“American Marine Week.” The Marine Equipment Association 
of America, of which K. L. Ames, Jr., McCormick Building, Chi- 
cago, is secretary, will do its part. How about You?

ROM the sailing ship of earlier days to the specialized, oil-burning, steel cargo-carrier 
of today; through all its ups and downs to its present outstanding position, the Ameri- 
can Merchant Marine has fostered and will maintain those traditions which enrich the 

history of sea transportation. 

For nearly a quarter century, the New York Shipbuilding Corporation has contributed 
of its skill and its ideals to the upbuilding of that which is best in our merchant and naval 
fleets of today. The largest single unit in America’s shipbuilding capacity, New York Ship 
started unhampered by limitations of physical layout or inherited practices. Its founders 
had the vision and the ability to pioneer in the adoption and development of many ship- 
building methods now accepted as standard by all. 

These ideals have been steadfastly maintained; and upon the foundation of complete 

| 13 plant facilities and modern steel-working practice there has grown up a tradition of accom- ¥ | 

| plishment in the building of good ships—ships that proudly take leadership in the greater 

American Merchant Marine, that reflect New York Ship’s

Accurate 
Boring f 
Methods 


HE presence of excessive noise in a reduction gear means waste 
of power and ultimate deterioration of the wearing parts. To 
eliminate noise, gear teeth are machined with extreme accu- 

racy. /\ccurate tooth form and spacing is folly if the gear and pinion 

are not supported in perfect alignment. The Terry method of boring 
the gear case (shown above) insures perfect alignment and an accu- 
rate distance between centers. A glance shows how simple it is to 
check the boring for perfect parallelism and correct center distance. 
This accuracy of boring would again be folly if the construction of 


the case did not maintain this accuracy after it had been once es- 
tablished. 


Bulletin S-171 can be read in five minutes. It explains all the problems 
of the simplest Reduction Gear. Write for it.

FOSTER 


MARINE 
SUPERHEATERS 


The Foster Marine Superheater for both Scotch 
type and Water Tube type boilers is constructed of 
a steel tube with cast iron rings. This construction 


will withstand greater temperature changes than a 
bare steel tube and will maintain steady superheat. 


It is not necessary to flood Foster superheaters, 


=n as which simplifies the piping and removes the possi- 
a = bility of trouble from slugs of water entering the 
aS Saale main engine cylinder or turbine casing when start- 
= = ing on a voyage.

no repair cost. About once a year the superheater 
should be opened up for an internal inspection and 
cleaning if required due to boiler priming. 


DIDDD. 


The soot blower should be used to clean the 
superheater surface externally once each day. Su- 
perheated steam should always be used for the soot 
blower.

There is probably no other part of the marine 
propelling equipment that requires as little attention 
and has as small a cost of repairs and operation as 


Foster marine superheaters.

The Importance of Good Rope 


Millions in property and thousands of lives are trusted each year to 
a single line of Whitlock All-Manila Rope. Such is the confidence, 
born of long experience, that sailors place in Whitlock Guaranteed 
Cordage—and sailors know rope. 


WAIMLOCK @ORDAGE 


THE UTMOST IN ROPE VALUE 


On land as well as at sea, rope users are swiftly learning these three 


vital facts about Whitlock All-Manila: 


It actually costs less because it lasts much longer than cheaper grades. 
It retains its great strength long after cheaper grades have become weak and unsafe. 
It will stand up under the hardest tests of wind, weather and work. 


Men who have learned these things seek the dealer who carries 
Whitlock Products. You should be one of these dealers. 


Write today for a catalog describing our complete line of Manila and 
Sisal rope and twine. Ask, also, for the Whitlock distributor in your 
territory.

In the Shipyard 


RUSTSOLVO—the liquid which cuts rust—will reduce this cost to a minimum. A small quan- 
tity of RUSTSOLVO applied to a rust bound bolt will so soften the rust that a child can turn it. 
Rust on plates which have been exposed to the elements is softened in a like manner and the work 
of removing it with a chipping hammer is materially lessened.

ONSIDER the tremendous forces required to drive a great mass 
of steel through the heavy seas and the great stresses involved as 
the propellers bite into the waves, steadily pushing their heavy burden. 


To carry a great boat to its destination without accident, or unnecessary 
delay, dependable equipment is required—not only strong shafts, 
propeller blades and reducing gear, but uniform, strong, dependable 
boiler tubes. 

Great strength and other inherent advantages make “SHELBY” 
Boiler Tubes highly dependable in carrying the high pressures of 
modern marine boilers and in meeting the other rigors of sea-going 
boat service. 


Our experts are always glad to cooperate on boiler tube problems of any nature.

One of the six effect Lillie Evaporators installed on the U.S.S. Tennessee 
and California for supplying distilled water 


Distilled Water at Minimum Cost 


HE Lillie Evaporators have made possible greater economies 

' in distilling sea water on U. S. Naval vessels than were ever 
before obtained. This is partly because the evaporation is from 

thin films of sea water enveloping the tubes, thus utilizing all of the 
temperature drop from transmitting heat. Exhaust steam or other 
low pressure steam can be used to operate multiple effects. The sex- 
tuple effects on the U. S. S. TENNESSEE and CALIFORNIA 


are notable examples. 


Distilled water produced by the Lillie six effect apparatus on 
the Battleship Tennessee was considered extremely pure. The six 
effects were operated as two triple effects simultaneously, as a rule. 
The average salinity from the two during the trial runs was about 
Y grain per gallon, which contrasts with the contract limit of 2 
grains per gallon. One of the triple effects was especially equipped 
to'reduce salinity. The test of this triple effect by itself showed less 
than 0.05 grain per gallon. 


The problem of incrustations is also solved in Lillie Evapora- 
tors by vapor reversal. Not only is the process of evaporation nearly 
continuous, but there is little falling off in rated capacity. 

Many other interesting features of Lillie Evaporators for 


marine work are described in our Lillie Booklet, “Distilled 
Water for Boiler Make-Up Feed” and in our Bulletin 114. 


See our exhibit at the Seventh National Exposition of Chemical 
Industries, New York City, during the week beginning September 12th.

the only straight-through road to 
100% steam or air-tight rivets. 


Long after other hammers have 
been ‘‘stepped down,”’ Boyers are 
still hard-hitters. Backed by the 
durable Boyer valve—the valve case 
with five lives — their giant driving 
power is as everlasting as the 
hammer itself. 


The hardest-hitting, longest- 
lasting hammer you can buy is the 


Boyer. Ask for Bulletin 600.

the Yale Way your way 


HE shops of The Terry 

Steam Turbine Company 
give impressive evidence of 
Yale Way Efficiency. 

Morethan 50 YaleSpur-Geared 
Chain Blocks are used here for 
swinging the work into place at 
the various machines and on to 
the final assembly. 

The many swinging Jib 
cranes, each with its Yale Spur- 
Geared Chain Block and I-Beam 
Trolley serve tocover practically 
every square foot of working 
space in the machine and assem- 
bly shops. 

More hours on actual pro- 


ductive work and less on lifting, 
handling and transferring is the 
aim of “Terry” production 
engineers. 

This is the Yale Way. 

You may not manufacture 
turbines but there’s Yale Way 
efficiency for you nevertheless, 
no matter what your interplant 
handling problems may be. 

Yale Spur-Geared, Screw-

Dé Laval Oil Purifiers are furnishing better and more eco- 
nomucal lubrication on more than 700 ships, including some 
300 vessels of the U. S. Navy. 


‘“‘The Texas Company approve the use of the 
De Laval to maintain our oil in a clean condition’ — 


—says Chief Engineer Lonigan of the S.S. Alloway. The 
Chief knows and the Texas Company know that the De 
Laval Oil Purifier increases the working life of any good 
oil. It purifies the used oil by centrifugal force, instan- 
taneously removing the water and other foreign substances 
which find their way into the oil as it circulates through 
the lubricating system. It returns the used oil to the lubri- 
cating system with its efficiency equal to that of new oil. 


Every reputable oil company is a booster for the De 
Laval Oil Purifier. It guards against poor oils by throw- 
ing out the heavy adulterant that sometimes fools the eye. 


Increase the life of your lubricating oil. Protect your- 
self from cheap substitution. Send today for Crank Case 
Oil Bulletin No. 102, or for Marine Bulletin No. 103, which 
digs into the subject of turbine lubrication.

America’s 
Most Powerful High-Speed Gears 


HE De Laval double-helical speed-reducing gears shown herewith are the 

most powerful ever built in this country tor high-speed turbine service. 

They are driven by compound turbines and transmit 22,500 hp. at a propeller 
speed of 360 r. p. m. ; 


Such gears have been made possible and successful only by the De Laval 
policy of liberal design and precision in manufacture, combined with 25 years 
of turbine and gear experience. 


Over 2,000,000 H. P. of De Laval marine gears are now in service. Many 
of them have traveled over 200,000 miles each, and all are giving perfect 
satisfaction. De Laval gears are unique in this respect. 


De Laval reduction gears are exceedingly quiet in operation and are 
highly efficient, as demonstrated by their record in service. Noisy reduction 
gears greatly reduce the efficiency and morale of engine room crews, who 
depend upon their hearing more than upon any other sense to locate trouble.

efficient and extremely economical in operation. 


A series of two or more Winton Oil Engines, each connected to a Westinghouse 
Generator, generating power and supplying it to a driving motor located in the 
stern, makes an ideal installation for many different types of ships. The power 
plant can be placed advantageously, it occupies less room than any other type of 
propulsion unit and requires a minimum of attention and labor. Its fuel is low in 
cost, easily stored and quickly taken aboard.

Weight—A Large Factor in Ship Operation 


Marine boiler weights are now receiving serious con- 
sideration, especially in passenger or freight ships re- 
quiring large power. Formerly the excessive weight of 
Scotch boilers was thought necessary to assure reliable 
operation. The modern demand for fuel economy, how- 
ever, requires higher steam pressures and temperatures, 
with lower boiler weights. This caused the introduc- 
tion of water-tube boilers in naval vessels. Practically 
all naval boilers are now of the water tube type and the 
merchant marine is rapidly following successful naval 
practice. . 

Even in moderate-powered cargo ships the weight of 
boilers is a large factor in ship operation. A typical 
cargo ship of 10,000 tons and 3,000 S.H.P. requires three 
boilers. With Scotch boilers and their necessary auxil- 


iary equipment, such as forced draft fans, air heater 
and auxiliary foundations, the boiler weights will be 
approximately 300 tons. Similar sized water-tube boil- 
ers complete will weigh 165 tons, a net saving of 135 
tons cargo carrying capacity. The increased weight of 
fuel necessary with Scotch boilers is also a considerable 
factor on long voyages. 


Foster Marine Boilers are designed with careful con- 
sideration to weights of pressure parts, casing insula- 


‘tion and water storage necessary for steady steaming. 


The weights of all steel parts are amply heavy to last 
the life of the ship without reduction in pressure due to 
Wear. 


The Foster boiler weights are carefully analyzed in 
our catalogue.

Ked-Lead means years to a ship 


Dutch Boy Red-Lead 


MARINE ENGINEERING 
AND SHIPPING AGE 


Experience proves that two 
or three coats of red-lead, 
applied to the hull on the 
ways, with ample time to dry, 
will add years to the life of a 
ship, and aid in maintaining 
speed by keeping the bottom 
free from pitting. 


Dutch Boy Red-Lead pro- 
tects metal. It provides a 
tough, elastic, moisture-proof 
coat that sticks tight and pre- 
vents rust. It won't flake or 
scale off, if applied to clean 
metal surfaces, and it gives an 
unequaled foundation for fin- 
ishing coats. 


The U.S. Navy uses a great 
deal of red-lead, with stiff 
specifications for purity —- 


specifications that Dutch Boy 
Red-Lead meets. 


Its convenient paste form, 
its fineness and purity, its re- 
markable spreading power, 
and its long life make Dutch 
Boy Red-Lead the most eco- 
nomical paint for metal sur- 
faces. 


For every metal surface on 
shipboard, use Dutch Boy 
Red-Lead—for first coats at 
least, Ile Cain los. iinwecl to 
black, brown, and green for 
finishing coats; if white or 
gray is desired, use Dutch

is effectively accomplished by the improved Diamond Rear End Blower 
(Model B). 


And soot removal is essential to economy. Power is one of the largest 
items of expense in the cost of operating a vessel, and the cost of fuel 
represents on the average 70 per cent. of the cost of power. The pres- 
ence of soot has cost—it still costs—a loss of hundreds of thousands of 
tons of coal and hundreds of thusands of barrels of fuel oil a year to ship ‘ Nes SO 
owners. Soot waste has been eliminated on many ships, and it can be S 

eliminated on all with a consequent notable increase in boiler efficiency 
and a consequent great increase in marine profits. 


Method of installing Model B blowers 
Thousands of Diamond Model B Blowers are in use today on Scotch on a three-furnace Scotch boiler. 
Marine boiler. The blower is permanently installed through the rear 

water leg, a hole being cut in the plates and a section of tubing expanded 

and beaded into place. The blower is encased in this tubing. When not 

in use the blower is secreted in the casing. As the steam is turned on 

the nozzle is automatically forced forward into blowing position. In 

operation dry steam is shot into each tube with the draft at a terrific 

velocity, sweeping and scouring the soot from the full length of the tubes. 


Diamond Soot Blowers save fuel and labor. Write for full information on blowers for 
any type of boiler, requesting your copy of Bulletin 134, ‘“How Some Ship Owners Have 
Increased Their Profits.”

=== = // Boiler Covering | 


The saving effected by a pipe and boiler covering 
depends on a number of qualities—strength, light- 
ness, ability to stand heat without injury, number 
and character of tiny air spaces, etc. If the voids 
holding dead air are too continuous—spongelike in 
character—heat will penetrate the covering quickly 
A, SEC like water and escape. 

3 The above drawing pictures a test made frequently 
and one that you can make for yourself. Four cubic- 
inch pieces of well known pipe covering were thrown 

into a bowl of water. The 85% Magnesia cube, as will be seen, floats considerably longer than the others— 
60 seconds. The air spaces of 85% Magnesia are more numerous and much less continuous than those of any 
other known insulating material. This accounts for its remarkable insulating quality. 


Witt 


ddd 


85% Magnesia Pipe and Boiler Covering could be made both heavier and stronger, if that were desirable. But it 
is made just heavy and strong enough for all practical purposes and this permits full insulating quality.

With the present price of coal, you should put your pipe and boiler covering to the severest practical tests. Ask 
us for further data on heat insulation, sent free of obligation. This Association, as such, has nothing for sale.

No matter whether it be a Tug Boat, a Fishing

is what makes the difference between profit

The propeller is a mighty vital point, more loss- 
es are probably caused by poorly designed and 
easily broken propellers than any one cause. 


Which probably explains why an increasingly

“This big floating dry dock at

She's 419 feet long over the

her steel is thoroughly pro-

Briggs Bituminous 
Composition 


Briggs Composition is an invaluable rust-pre- 
ventative for steel vessels of all types and 
sizes—for floating dry docks, caissons’ and 
any other metal structure exposed to moisture 
and corrosion. 


It is particularly effective in double bottoms, 
bilges and other places which are difficult of 
access—it is impervious to moisture, and 
forms a smooth, glossy coating which will not 
chip or flake off, and resists the destructive ac- 
tion of acids and alkalis.

OMPARE these tooth diagrams of a Maag Gear 


and an ordinary gear. At the base of the tooth, 


where other gears most often fail, Maag Gears are widest. 
This “strongest-at-the-base”’ tooth is typical of all Maag 
Gears—large or small—and is the fundamental reason for 
Maag tooth strength and Maag Gear endurance. It means the 
ability to carry 
greater loads than 
ordinary gears will 
take. 


We use Maag Gears 
on the heaviest ma-

We know they are 
stronger and longer 
wearing than any 
other gears we've 
ever tried.

Less Breaking Leverage 


You need such gears 

on your mine equip-

now isn’t equipped with Maag Gears, replace 
the first gears worn out with a Maag set and 
notice the better service and longer life they 
will give ycu.

Marine Paint 


Actually Pays You For Using It 


—because, in the final reckoning, your 
painting costs will be lower with Federal 
than with other marine paints. 


The heaviest items in the cost of painting 
your ships are dock-charges and labor— 
these are the same, whether you use Fed- 
eral or some less durable protection. But 
a coat of Federal adheres so closely, and 
has such toughness and wear-resisting quali- 
ties, that painting is needed much less often. 


Federal Paints and Compositions are to be 
had in a full range of colors, for all classes 
of vessels, and for every marine purpose. 
Our products include Bottom Compositions, 
Boottopping Compositions, Topside Paints, 
Hold Enamels, Deck Paints, Deck House 
Paints, Mast and Bulwark Paints. 


You can have any quantity for quick deliv- 
ery anywhere, from our branch offices in

on your cleaning and repainting. Write

The Bradley Hammer has been found practically in-

and rapid, these hammers attain big results in many kinds 
of forgings. They are built to stand the strain of con- 
tinuous work. 


Pressure on the foot treadle starts the hammer by 
bringing the idler pulley against the drive belt. When 
the treadle is released a brake stops the hammer. . 

Both the speed and force of the blow are thus com-

The Pipe Is Out 
of Line — BUT 


The GOETZE GASKET 
Is Holding Tight 


Even if the pressure is high with a poor job in pipe fit- 
ting you can make any joint tight with a Goetze Gasket. 


The resilient deep corrugation in 
the copper or other metal and the 
spun asbestos rings take care of that. 
They remain in perfect contact with 
the flange surface, regardless of ex- 
pansion and contraction, 

Goetze Gaskets last as long as the 
pipe line. You can remove them 
and re-use them with assured tight- 
ness. 

We are ready now to convince you 
that Goetze Gaskets, Goetzerit 
Sheet Packing and Goetze Valve 
Discs are unbeatable in any service.

The Most Traveled Paints 


on Seven Seas 


T would be hard to find a port of the world at which 

Bay State painted ships had not touched. For Bay 
State Marine Paints are the acknowledged leaders, and 
have been for over seventy years. Inside and out, for 
every part of the ship, there’s a Bay State Paint that 
laughs at hard wear, foul weather, brine, and boiling sun. 


Bay State Marine Paints include Stack Paint, Colum- 
bia Floor and Deck Paint, and Bay State Anti-fouling 
and Anti-corrosive Paints. Immediate deliveries in all 
quantities will be made in all New England ports and 
the port of New York. Wadsworth. Howland & Company 
are one of the largest manufacturers of marine paints in 
New England. Write for complete information.

BLOODED-STOCK | 


If you were buying a horse and he was 
just a horse you would have to take for 
granted the things the owner said, and 
then wait for experience to show if he 
had spoken the truth. 


But if you bought a horse of blooded 
stock that had a pedigree, you would not 
need to take the man’s word for it. The 
pedigree would show his ancestry and 
race and give you an idea of the animal’s 
capacity for speed and endurance. 


It’s the same in buying advertising 
space. Some publications sell “just a 
horse” and you have to take their cir- 
culation statement with a pinch of salt. 


MARINE ENGINEERING is blooded 
stock. An A. B. C. statement is the 
pedigree that tells you what to expect in 
the way of speed and endurance.

MARINE ENGINEERING 
AND SHIPPING AGE 


Good Ships Deserve 


\VESINS Marine Engine Oil — for 
thrust bearing and reciprocating en- 
gine lubrication—is the latest develop- 
ment among the Sun Marine Oils. It 
conforms in efficiency with the high stand- 
ards maintained for years in the famous 


Sun XX Marine Oil. 


Viking Engine Oil, by reason of a 
special patented refining process, will form 
a perfect and lasting emulsion with either 
salt or fresh water. 


The body of this emulsion may be 
varied from a heavy pastelike substance 
to any consistency by the simple addition 
of a larger percentage of water. 


For lubrication of thrust bearings an 
emulsion of Viking Oil with from 50 to 
75 per cent water is recommended. 


When used for main bearings without 
the addition of water, Viking Oil has 
high viscosity and extremely low internal 
frictional values. It will absorb any 
water that may find its way into the bear- 
ings and will feed indefinitely through a 
wick without clogging the pores. 


Although having the saponifiable value 


Viking Marine Engine Oil 


of oils highly compounded with blown 
rape seed, Viking Marine Engine Oil 
will not deteriorate and become rancid 
with age. 


In addition, Viking Oil is neutral in 
reaction and contains no fatty acids, thus 
eliminating the corrosion of metal parts 
produced by the high acid content of 
most marine oils. It is unaffected by low 
temperatures. 


The Sun Company is one of the 
world’s largest producers, refiners and 
shippers of petroleum products. Its out- 
put of lubricating oils alone exceeds a 
million and a half gallons per week. 


The Sun Company has specialized for 
a quarter century in lubricating oils. It 
has developed into an organization of 
lubrication experts, its aim being to sup- 
ply accurate and efficient lubrication in- 
stead of just “oil.” 


The choice of a lubricant for any par- 
ticular purpose demands expert advice. 
Engineers of the Sun Company are avail- 
able to make an analysis of your lubrica- 
tion requirements and specify the right 
oils to meet them. ‘This service is free.

Life-savin 


“Safety at Sea” 


MARINE ENGINEERING 
AND SHIPPING AGE 


Life Saving Efficiency 


At the 1921 spring meeting of the Institute of 
Naval Architects, Mr. Peskett, Naval Architect of 
the Cunard Line, very aptly said: 


“Ships today are not built for the cost paid in 
pre-war days, and although safety must come 
before all other questions, the prevailing pres- 
sure ut economic conditions seems to present a 
most opportune moment to develop what are 
most essential in life-saving appliances and to 
dispense with all that are likely to be imprac- 
ticable.” 


The entire resources of the Steward Davit & Equip- 
ment Corporation are devoted to the saving of life 
-at sea. Fully complying with the legal require- 
ments in this country and abroad, it is our desire to 
provide life-saving equipment that may justly be 
classed as the most efficient and trustworthy in the 
world. 


It has been our privilege to have a very broad 
experience, measured in ships served, in this par- 
ticular field. Steward Life-Saving Equipment is now 
installed on a large number of vessels of the U. S. 
Navy, the U. S. Army Transport Service and in com- 
mercial lines; on cargo vessels, tankers and on many 
of the finest passenger ships afloat. 


Steward Life-Saving Service 


At your request we will send an engineer to your 
ship to make a detailed and strictly confidential 
report of the condition of your life-saving equip- 
ment. You will have the positive assurance that the 
laws have been complied with in proper form for 
your legal department and in the event of future 
need a dated and affirmed record will be on file for 
your protection. There is no charge for this service 
in New York waters.

True economy is not how

lessly manufactured and im- 
properly seasoned lumber 
means an unsatisfactory struc-

There can be no compro- 
mise with poor lumber and 


timbers in ship, barge and

for uniform strength and dur- 
ability are too exacting for 
“savings” of that kind. South- 
ern Pine products bearing the

the user only after being sub- 
jected to vigilant inspection 
from tree to loading dock, 
thereby assuring uniform high

Oil Engines 


Price Oil Engines are flexible. The average 
time for reversing from full speed ahead to full 
speed astern is only seven seconds. The en- 
gine control and reversing are accomplished by 
a single lever, there being no shifting of cams, 
camshafts or gears. 


These oil engines operate on the four stroke 
cycle. Ignition is by temperature of compres- 
sion only. The fuel atomization is direct and 
positive without the use of compressed air. 


Price Marine Oil Engines are built in sizes 
ranging from 150 to 750 H.P.

ON EVERY HEAD 


THE CHAMPION RIVET COMPANY 


CLEVELAND, O. 


Recently one of the largest consumers 
of Rivets in this country made inquiry of us for 
price on their contract requirements. Our quo- 
tation did not secure the business. | 

A few days later, we received an inquiry 
from these same people for a car load of rivets. 
We quoted exactly the same price we named on the 
contract and secured the order. 

Our representative was anxious to know 
why our price on the car load secured the order, 
but failed to secure the contract. 

The Purchasing Agent said, ‘‘Well, the 
job for which we wanted the car load being a 
very particular one, our Shop Superintendent 
insisted on getting VICTOR RIVETS made by The 


Champion Rivet Company''. 


Respectfully submitted,

It can’t be overworked 


A Shepard Electric Traveling 
Crane is built for severe service 
—and faultlessly responds. It is 
capable of handling a capacity 
load (or reasonably over) every 
working hour, every day, year in 
and year out. 


Because operating mechanisms, 
both electrical and mechanical, 
work within tight metal housings, 
the elements, dirt, dust, or damp- 
ness, can in no way impede the 
efficiency of a Shepard Traveling 
Crane. Gears operate in baths 
of oil, assuring thorough, even 
lubrication. 


All running parts of the crane 
trolley are maintained in correct 
alignment, keeping the pressure 
and stresses in gear teeth, bear- 
ings, brakes, etc., within safe 
limits. 


Shepard Engineers are at your 
service. Call upon them.

Doctoring a deck 


OZENS of time and labor saving applications have made the 
process of gas welding and cutting indispensable in ship yards. 


Because of its uniformly high purity, exceptional portability and 


constant availability 


DISSOLVED ACETYLENE 
has proven the most satisfactory gas for welding and cutting in ship 


building and repairing. 
Forty plants and warehouses insure immediate deliveries of Prest- 


O-Lite anywhere and in any desired quantity —a never failing service 
that has greatly enhanced the value of Prest-O-Lite in the hundreds of 


yards where it is regularly used.

EW people realize the enormous 

work done by Linde in keeping 

the wheels turning on our railroads. 

The recent National transportation 

tangle would have been a thousand times 

worse but for the quick and permanent 

repairs on rolling stock and rails made 
possible by the oxy-acetylene process. 

Linde Oxygen, because of constantly 

uniform purity and unfailing deliveries, 


Behind the locomotive—Linde 


is used for this highly important work 
by almost all railroads of standing. 


Whenever time is a weighty factor in 
repair work Linde Oxygen and Linde Ser- 


vice are indispensable. 


Seventy-five plants and warehouses 
centrally situated, place Linde quality 
and Linde Service at the disposal of 
every oxygen user.

From Pontoon to Superdreadnought 
During the twenty-odd years of its existence 
the New York Shipbuilding Corporation has not 
only turned out many repetitions and variations 
of the same type of vessel, but has built vessels 


of almost every known marine type—literally 
from “pontoon to superdreadnought.” 


From the accomplishments of the past it is 
able to bring to new ship construction a wealth 
of experience gained in both quantity production 
and specialized output. The New York Ship 
yard is a specialist not merely in one type of ves- 
sel but in many—it might be said in all. 


Passenger liners, tankers, colliers, general 
cargo carriers, destroyers, battleships, cruisers, 
mine-planters; carfloats, ferryboats, tugboats, 
dredges; each type, each different size or class, 
reflects the diversified skill, the completeness of 
shop and yard facilities of this great shipyard.

the direction in which the 
steam flows with respect to 
the wheel. The power pro- 
ducing action takes place on 
the curved surface at the back of 
the bucket which we have revealed 
by removing a portion of the blade. 


Wear on this surface, because of the 
complete reversal, does not alter the 
entrance or exit angle of the steam. ‘Therefore, the action of the 
steam will remain the same as when the turbine was new, which 
means that the efficiency will like-wise remain unaltered.

Any rope may have a high initial breaking strength. But Whitlock 
All-Manila retains its great strength throughout its unusually long, 
serviceable life—and that’s what counts. 


WAITLOCK (ORDAGE 


THE UTMOST IN ROPE VALUE 
Whitlock All-Manila is the rope that is guaranteed superior in every 
respect to the U. S. Government Bureau of Standards Specifications, 
including strength, quality of fiber, and length per pound. 


It is not surprising that progressive dealers who carry this rope are 
building business, for it enables them to guarantee rope satisfaction.

How 


FOSTER SUPERHEATERS 


affect marine 
boiler economy 


Marine boilers are generally designed to operate 
at a capacity of from 5 to 6 Ib. evaporation per sq. ft. 
of heating surface. gee 


This capacity usually results in stack temperature 
of 600 to 650° with Scotch type boilers and 500 to 
550° with water tube type boilers. With Scotch type 
boilers, Foster Marine Waste Heat type superheaters | 
will reduce the stack temperature over 100°. For this — 
reduction in temperature a superheat of from 50 to 
60° F. will be produced and the-boiler economy in- 
creased from 3 to 4%. 


The 50 to 60° superheat will reduce the steam 
consumption of the main engine approximately 8% 


Foster Marine Superheaters installed in uptake of or the steam consumption of the main turbine about 
Scotch Marine Boiler 6%. There is, therefore, a saving in fuel due to the 
reduction of gas temperature and a further saving in 

fuel due to the reduced steam consumption. 


In water tube boilers the Foster superheaters are 
usually installed in the nest of tubes at a point where 
the temperature is sufficient to maintain the superheat 
desired. This superheating surface usually reduces 
the stack temperature about 50°. The superheat 
gives the same reduced steam consumption in the 
propelling equipment as the Scotch type Foster super- 
heater. 


The fuel economy obtained with Foster Marine 
superheaters can be maintained steadily by using the 
soot blowers at least once each day. If the boilers 
do not prime excessively there will be practically no 
cost of repairs.

THE CAPTAIN KNOWS 


“Men who go down to the sea in 
ships’ have, since 1824, been using a 
rope, light, strong, flexible and almost 
wear- proof, that is made in Plymouth. 


Made in the early days to exactly 
meet the needs of the times, Plymouth 
Rope today possesses just a little more 
wear, a little more strength, a little 
more flexibility than do other ropes. 


That is why the ship captains of to- 
day, like the captains of those famous. 
ships of the first American Merchant 
Marine, prefer that their ships be 
equipped with Plymouth. 


You too will find, as have these 
experts, that Plymouth is The 
Rope You Can Trust.

Graduated capacity control on belt driven air compressors. 


The introduction of the XCB Air Compressor presents for the first time an efficient and graduated 
capacity regulation for belt driven air compressors. 

TheI-R 5-Step Clearance Control is admittedly the most efficient and simple air compressor regulation. 
For years it has been standard on our large direct connected electric driven compressors. Now it 
can be furnished on belt driven units as small as 100 H. P. 


The unloading is entirely automatic. 


The demand for air is seldom steady throughout the day. With the 5-Step Clearance Control the 
Compressor automatically operates at full, three-quarter, one-half, one-quarter, or no load as required to 
maintain the desired air pressure. 


Guarantees efficient operation at partial loads. 


The reduction in power secured with this method of control is practically in direct proportion 
to the quantity of air produced. 


This new type of compressor is known as the “Imperial” Type XCB. These units are é ee 
fitted with Ingersoll-Rand Plate Air Valves, and may be furnished with or without Cee 
short belt drive and electric motor. bs ad

What one of the World’s Largest 
Air Drill Users just found out 


NENE months ago one of 
the largest pneumatic 
tool users in the world —a 
prominent ship - builder — 
decided to satisfy itself con- 
cerning the relative economy 
and operating advantages 
of various makes of portable 
air drills. 


‘Three makes of air drills in- 
cluding the Little Giant were 
selected for this test. All 
drills were operated under 
identical service conditions for 
nine months. 


Tests to determine horse- 
power, drilling speeds and 
air economy were made at 


the end of the nine months. | 


These tests, plus accurate 
records kept during the 
period, proved the follow- 
ing: 

That Little Giant Air Drills 
were the most economical be- 
cause they 

— consumed less air per foot- 
pound of work done. 

—had better speed charac- 
teristics. 

—had greater spindle forque 
from speed-light to stal- 
ling point. 

—or in other words developed 
greater horse-power under 
every condition of load. 


Let a C-P Service Engineer 
prove the above statement. 
Or, better yet, make the 
same test in your own plant 
with one or a number of 
Little Giants applied to the 
definite work which such 
tools perform, under your 
own requirements. 


Little Giants are built in a 
complete line for every dril- 
ling, reaming, tapping, screw- 
setting, nut-and-bolt tighten- 
ing or other shop require- 
ments. Address the nearest

De Laval Oil Purifiers save oil by making 
it unnecessary to ever pump a drop of it over- 
board. Once through the De Laval, the dirti- 
est oil is completely purified and is ready for 
another period of use—free from water, dirt 
and particles of metal. Emulsions readily 
yield to De Laval centrifugal purification so 
that this worst enemy to efficient lubrication 
is eliminated. 


De Laval Oil Purifiers protect machinery, 
because they make it easier and cheaper to 


use clean oil than to use that which has be- 
come foul through use. Bearing trouble is 
reduced to the minimum; gears run smoother 
and last longer. And on the Diesel-driven ship 
corresponding savings can be made by centrif- 
ugally purifying crank case oil.

You Can Get More Speed From 


The Same Boilers With Less Fuel By 
Installing De Laval Geared Turbines 


IVE 10,500-ton tankers were recently refitted with De Laval Compound turbines and double- 

reduction gears. The substitution of De Laval geared turbines for the original equipment 
made it possible to raise the speed materially without any increase in boiler or condenser ca- 
pacity. Compared with similar vessels driven by reciprocating engines, approximately a knot 
and a half greater speed is obtained from 10 per cent less total steam. 


De Laval turbines are of the impulse type, with large clearances, and can be quickly 
reversed, permitting rapid and easy maneuvering. An interlocking gear prevents admission 
of steam to both ahead and astern tur- 
bines at the same time. 


Over 2,000,000 hp. of De Laval gears 
are giving satisfactory service. De 
Laval gears are practically noiseless in 

- operation, which is not only an indica- 
tion of perfect cutting, high efficiency 
and long life, but also is necessary for

LIFE—A LARGE COST FACTOR 


With Scotch marine boilers it has been cus- 
tomary to consider re-boilering necessary at least 


once during the ship’s useful life and in some 
cases oftener. 


The cost of the first set of water-tube boilers 
is usually the final cost. This cost is not only 
less than the first cost of Scotch boilers, but it 
saves the expense of laying up a ship for a long 
period during its useful life to renew boilers as 
well as the cost of the new Scotch Boilers. 


The life of marine boilers is dependent on de- 
sign and operation. The design of Scotch boil- 


ers is a fundamental cause of short life as its lack 
of circulation produces strains which promote 
leakage and result in constant caulking, finally 
making new boilers necessary. The design of 
most water-tube boilers insures rapid circulation, 
even temperature of all parts of the boiler and no 
wear of essential parts due to caulking, tube roll- 
ing, etc., therefore, their useful life is in many 
cases longer than the ship. 


Foster Marine Boilers are correctly designed 
for a long life with minimum repair costs. 


The Foster Catalogue shows why this boiler 
has a long life.

The World’s First Diesel-Electric Cargo Ship 


HE reliability and efficiency of Diesel engine-electric 
drive will soon be further demonstrated on the 2,200 
dead weight ton ‘‘Fordonian’”’ to be the world’s first 
Diesel-electric cargo ship, now having its Diesel-direct 
drive replaced by Diesel-electric drive at the Tebo Yacht 
Basin of the Todd Shipyards Corporation. 


The General Electric Company with its many years ex- 
perience in the marine field was the first to successfully 
apply Diesel-electric propulsion to ships. The electric 
equipment for the 150-foot fishing trawler ‘‘Mariner’’ 
was furnished by this Company and has been in service 
since February, 1920. 


Diesel engine-electric drive with G-E electric equipment 
was chosen for the ‘‘Fordonian”’ because of its highoverall 
economy, saving in hull space, ease and flexibility of 
control, and reliability. 


The General Electric Company supplies generating and 
control apparatus, propulsion motors, and motors for 
engine room and deck auxiliaries of every kind for Diesel- 
electric ships.

It costs a great deal less to put 
on a coat of Dutch Boy Red-Lead 
than to build a new ship. In fact, 
the cost of painting would be ab- 


sorbed in a. few days extra life of 


the ship. 


Every vessel should have two 
or three good coats of red-lead 
while she is building, with plenty 
of time allowed for drying. This 
is particularly important for. un- 
derwater parts. 


Special topcoats may be neces- 
sary for special purposes, as in 
water and ballast tanks, but the 
priming coat should always be red- 
lead. 

In the Navy “red-lead is the pro- 
tective paint commonly used on 
metal surfaces” (to quote from 


Hull still in good con- 
dition .after two years at 
the bottom of Lake Erie. 
Painted with Dutch Boy 
Red-Lead. 


Red-lead is cheaper than ship’s plates 


The Bluejacket’s Manual) because 
it gives the best protection against 
the destructive action of salt water. 


Dutch Boy Red-Lead meets 
Navy specifications for purity— 
freedom from litharge. It doesn’t 
harden in the pail. No red-lead is 
wasted; no time lost by the 
painter. 

Dutch Boy Red-Lead has the 
added advantage of greater spread- 
ing power than other paints for 
marine use. It covers the steel 
with a tough, elastic, uniform coat 
that won’t peel or scale. 

Specify Dutch Boy Red-Lead 
for all metal surfaces. Can be 
tinted to various dark colors as de- 
sired for finishing coats.

SOOT REMOVAL FROM SCOTCH 


MARINE BOILERS 


is effectively accomplished by the improved Diamond Rear End Blower 
(Model B). 


And soot removal is essential to economy. Power is one of the largest 
items of expense in the cost of operating a vessel, and the cost of fuel 
represents on the average 70 per cent. of the cost of power. The pres- 
ence of soot has cost—it still costs—a loss of hundreds of thousands of 
tons of coal and hundreds of thusands of barrels of fuel oil a year to ship 
owners. Soot waste has been eliminated on many ships, and it can be 
eliminated on all with a consequent notable increase in boiler efficiency 
and a consequent great increase in marine profits. 


Method of installing Model B blowers 
Thousands of Diamond Model B Blowers are in use today on Scotch on a three-furnace Scotch boiler. 
Marine boiler. The blower is permanently installed through the rear 

water leg, a hole being cut in the plates and a section of tubing expanded 

and beaded into place. The blower is encased in this tubing. When not 

in use the blower is secreted in the casing. As the steam is turned on 

the nozzle is automatically forced forward into blowing position. In 

operation dry steam is shot into each tube with the draft at a terrific 

velocity, sweeping and scouring the soot from the full length of the tubes. 


Diamond Soot Blowers save fuel and labor. Write for full information on blowers for 
any type of boiler, requesting your copy of Bulletin 134, ‘“‘How Some Ship Owners Have 
Increased Their Profits.”

The heating of fuel oil before discharging 
it through oil burners is a necessary opera- 
tion, consequently your oil heater is a very 
important part of your oil burning system. 
Oil is a poor conductor of heat, and in 
order to heat it efficiently and quickly it 
should be caused to flow over the heating 
surfaces in a film-like condition and at a 
high velocity in order to obtain maximum 
heat transfer. 


SPIRAL OIL FILM 


On account of the thick and viscous crude 
oils and residuum which are employed to- 
day for fuel purposes, this maximum heat 
transfer will not maintain unless the heat- 
ing surfaces of your heater can be kept 
clean. Would you have a boiler in your 
plant whose heating surfaces could not be 
cleaned?

This latest “COEN” product is the 


result of years of scientific experimenting 
and testing, and in offering it to you we 
offer an oil heater that for Efficiency, 
Economy, Strength and Durability has no 
equal.

Ship Radio Inspection 
One Phase of World-Wide Wireless 


The interest of the Radio Corporation of 
America in its ship-sets does not end with their 
installation. Inspection Service Stations are 
located in all important seaports. Through 
these stations the Radio Corporation of 
America keeps its ship-sets at the highest point 
of efficiency. 

Ship-sets may be bought or leased from the 
Radio Corporation of America. But whether 
bought or leased the ship owner commands the 
Radio Corporation of America’s Inspection 
and Maintenance Service. Ship owners may 


also call upon the Radio Corporation of 
America for licensed, highly skilled operators. 


All this is but part of the World-Wide Wire- 
less service of the Radio Corporation of America 
at all important seaports of the United States. 


The Radio Corporation of America has equipped 
thousands of ships with wireless apparatus. This appa- 
ratus always embodies the highest engineering skill. For 
behind the Radio Corporation of America stand the 
splendidly equipped Research Laboratories of the Gen- 
eral Electric Company, the American ‘i elephone & Tele- 
graph Company, and the Western Electric Company, 
where, year in and year out, eminent physicists conduct 
investigations that result in new radio advances.

An Indication of Confidence 


As a general thing, ships equipped with charcoal iron boiler 
tubes carry only a few extra tubes for emergencies, while 
ships fitted with tubes of other material usually carry a full 
set of spare tubes. 


The confidence thus evidenced in the charcoal iron boiler 
tube is the natural result of years of dependable tube service. 
Charcoal iron tubes are practically standard in marine use. 


Specify Parkesburg Charcoal Iron Boiler Tubes. They are 
made of genuine charcoal iron, are easily applied, and give

Shove a thin rule 


up through a joint yp 
your pipe cover ing 


If your test shows that the distance from the pipe to the outside 
of the covering is the thickness of the covering, then there is no loss 
through sagging. 

But often such a test shows that, though the covering looks snug 
from the outside, it has charred and sagged perhaps a quarter of an 
inch and air currents are moving along under the pipes and escaping 
at the joints. Such a pipe covering is robbing you daily. 


Some pipe coverings contain from 20 to 22 per cent. of inflam- 
mable material that chars under high temperature and gradually 
develops a sag. 


85% Magnesia, on the other hand, is not affected adversely by very 
high temperatures. Tests at temperatures continued at from 700 to 900 
degrees show an actual gain of about three per cent. in 
efficiency. No other material has the heat-saving 
efficiency of 85% Magnesia. It is light and yet strong 
enough. Neither water nor heat impairs it. 


Ask for a copy of our revised book, “Defend Your 
Steam,” giving much valuable information about 
heat insulation, tables, interesting applications, etc.

YORK MECHANICAL REFRIGERATION || 


| The RELIABLE REFRIGERATION | 


for every Practical Purpose on Board Ship 


The governing factor in the selection of Marine Refrigerating 
Equipment, in most cases, is the reliability of the machine. Can 
it be absolutely depended upon to perform the work? An en- 
forced shut-down of the refrigerating machine while on a voyage 
may mean the loss of a large portion of the ship stores, or perhaps 


i of the cargo. 
(A York Refrigerating Machines have demonstrated their absolute 


reliability by more than thirty-five years of satisfactory service, 


which has given them a high reputation throughout the refrigerating 
field. 


Hundreds of vessels now plying the seven seas employ York 
Mechanical Refrigeration, to the satisfaction of their crews and 
profit of the owners. We invite all shipping interests to investi- 
gate the York Systems of Marine Refrigeration, and believe it 
will prove profitable to them.

Federal Marine Paints 


UN, wind, salt spray and wave action in hot or cold 

climates have little effect on Federal Paints. They 

are thoroughly waterproof, resist abrasion, do not chip 

off or crack, and will give much longer service than ordi- 

nary paint. Federal Bottom Paints are rust-resistant and 
powerfully germicidal. 


Other paints may be cheaper in initial cost, but it’s far 
cheaper to paint once with good paint than to paint sev- 
eral times with poor paint.

16,000 Miles Through 
Arctic Seas Without a Hitch 


From Seattle to Nome, Alaska, 
and thence to the Siberian Coast— 
16,000 miles in all—is the record 
made by the “Bender Brothers” on 
her first trip with her new 100 
H.P. “C-O” engine. 


Her skipper says that even in 
the heaviest weather in the ice 
bound Arctic, her engine performed 
steadily and drove the schooner at 
an average speed of seven and 
one-half knots. 


“C-O” oil engines, 30 H.P. to 
300 H.P., using low priced fuel oils, 
have established records for un- 
usual fuel and operating economy 
on all classes of work craft in all 
waters. 


They are simple and sturdy in 
construction, without carburetors, 
igniters, timers, switches, or mag- 
netos. Easy to start and operate— 
inexpensive to maintain.

housands of Fuses 


What would happen if the boiler of a railway 
locomotive were made of fibre the thickness of 
that used in fuse casings? 


That is just what happens to fuses that are not 
constructed to let the pressure of gases escape 
quickly when there is a blowout. For blowouts, 
especially if caused by short circuits, frequently 
create a pressure higher than that carried by 
locomotives. 


We have at last discovered a way to let the pres- 
sure blowout escape before it has time to do any 
damage to 


“Union” Renewable Fuses are now 
built with four safety valves on each 
end. 

These safety valves consist of small 
vents or holes in the metal washers, 
but without a hole in the leather 
washers. So you see, when a link 
blows, the pressure lifts the leather 
washers enough for gases to escape, 
yet not sufficient to permit any flame 
to pass. ’ : : i men 
Simple, isn’t it? So simple it’s a wonder MH 

no one ever thought of it before. Yet, it | 
will save thousands of fuses from being 
blown to atoms. 

“Union” Fuses have many other valuable features 
found in no others—features that make them the 
cheapest fuse on the market to use. 


[The‘<Union’’saves more than ANY other renewable fuse. | 


“Union” Fuses, both Renéwable and~ Non-Renewable, are 
for sale by all leading jobbers and dealers.

Malleable Iron Castings! 


OUGH usage or the severest plunging at 
sea cannot crack a Southern-Rome berth. 
This test proves it: Take a malleable iron 
casting. Strike it time and again with a hammer. 
It will not crack. (The old-style chilled cast- 
ing, struck once with a hammer, is shattered to 
pieces. ) 
““Malleable iron castings at every joint” is 
why Southern-Rome marine bunks and berths 
are the best “buy”’ on the market. Write today.

We show here just one example from our 
large line of presses for Bending Pipe, Rods, 
Shafts, Angles, Beams and Structural Shapes, 
etc. 


This machine works on water pressure of 1500 lbs. per square inch. 
he pins are interchangeable in any of the holes. The ram is 
double ended and is actuated by two cylinders, enabling the 
operator to exert force from either side of the table. The valves 
are placed in one body, ard connecting levers at either side of 
the press govern the movements completely. 


We build hydraulic presses for every purpose where hydraulic 
pressure is a possibility—also pumps, accumulators, valves, fittings, 
packings, shears, riveters, punches, jacks, etc.

The Pipe Is Out 
of Line — BUT 


The GOETZE GASKET 
Is Holding Tight 


Even if the pressure is high with a poor job in pipe fit- 
ting you can make any joint tight with a Goetze Gasket. 


The resilient deep corrugation in 
the copper or other metal and the 
spun asbestos rings take care of that. 
They remain in perfect contact with 
the flange surface, regardless of ex- 
pansion and contraction. 

Goetze Gaskets last as long as the 
pipe line. You can remove them 
and re-use them with assured tight- 
ness. 

We are ready now to convince you 
that Goetze Gaskets, Goetzerit 
Sheet Packing and Goetze Valve 
Discs are unbeatable in any service.

The Bradley Hammer has been found practically in- 


dispensable for forging liners in shipyards. Accurate 
and rapid, these hammers attain big results in many kinds 
of forgings. They are built to stand the strain of con- 
tinuous work. 


Pressure on the foot treadle starts the hammer by 
bringing the idler pulley against the drive belt. When 
the treadle is released a brake stops the hammer. 

Both the speed and force of the blow are thus com- 
pletely under control of the operator.

Viking Marine Engine Oil 


WS Marine Engine Oil — for 
thrust bearing and reciprocating en- 
gine lubrication—is the latest develop- 
ment among the Sun Marine Oils. It 
conforms in efficiency with the high stand- 
ards maintained for years in the famous 


Sun XX Marine Oil. 


Viking Engine Oil, by reason of a 
special patented refining process, will form 
a perfect and lasting emulsion with either 
salt or fresh water. 


The body of this emulsion may be 
varied from a heavy pastelike substance 
to any consistency by the simple addition 
of a larger percentage of water. 


For lubrication of thrust bearings an 
emulsion of Viking Oil with from 50 to 
75 per cent water is recommended. 


When used for main bearings without 
the addition of water, Viking Oil has 
high viscosity and extremely low internal 
frictional’ values. It will absorb any 
water that may find its way into the bear- 
ings and will feed indefinitely through a 
wick without clogging the pores. 


Although having the saponifiable value 


of oils highly compounded with blown 
rape seed, Viking Marine Engine Oil 
will not deteriorate and become rancid 
with age. 


In addition, Viking Oil is neutral in 
reaction and contains no fatty acids, thus 
eliminating the corrosion of metal parts 
produced by the high acid content of 
most marine oils. It is unaffected by low 
temperatures. 


The Sun Company is one of the 
world’s largest producers, refiners and 
shippers of petroleum products. Its out- 
put of lubricating oils alone exceeds a 
million and a half gallons per week. 


The Sun Company has specialized for 


-a quarter century in lubricating oils. It 


has developed into an organization of 
lubrication experts, its aim being to sup- 
ply accurate and efficient lubrication in- 
stead of just “oil.” 


The choice of a lubricant for any par- 
ticular purpose demands expert advice. 
Engineers of the Sun Company are avail- 
able to make an analysis of your lubrica- 
tion requirements and specify the right 
oils to meet them. ‘This service is free.

ANCHOR 
CHAIN CABLE 


IS THE ONLY CHAIN MADE WITH LINK AND 
STUD ONE SOLID PIECE. 


It is greater in strength, more uniform in size and shape, 
and easier of operation than any other type of anchor 
chain cable. ~ 


The studs in “Naco” links being cast of the same metal 
and integral with the link (not inserted afterward), can 
never be lost or even loosened. THIS IS the greatest 
sateguard against kinking, and an assurance of smooth 
operation in service.

What Balsa Insulation Means to the 
Shipowner and Shipbuilder 


ALSA insulation, economical in main- 
tenance of refrigerated.ship spaces and 
practical in the simplicity of its instal- 

lation, provides the solution for the many 
difficulties heretofore encountered in con- 
struction and upkeep. By the use of Balsa 
full insulating values are maintained, with- 


out replacement, year after year; 
there is a saving of as much as 
fifty percent of the weight of the 
insulating structure; thinner 
walls increase the available cargo 
space; and the original cost of the 
completed structure is less than 


In the last eighteen months more than 
a million board feet of Balsa insulation have 
been installed following the thorough devel- 
opment of its use during the last ten years. 
Methods of treatment that retain the high 
insulating value of this lightest of all woods, 
have been fully proven. Standard plans of in- 
stallation have been established. 
Balsa has met successfully all 
those tests and conditions to 
which an extended period of 
actual use has subjected it. Its 
use has brought about a new 
appreciation of the possibilities

with other good materials. 


of economical ship insulation. 


END WINNICANGIES QU8 Ie Syey SleQUP UNSW ILA ION 


Balsa is supplied in large panels having a structural strength 
fully half that of spruce. 


Baisa requires little studding and only a single layer of sheath- 
ing for surface protection. 


Its resistance to heat transmission is equal to that of other 
high grade insulating materials. 


Balsa is even lighter than cork, and the weight of a completed 
installation is fully 50% less. 


Permanence of structure and of insulating efficiency is obtained 
through exclusion of moisture. 


Balsa panels are easily installed, a small number of tight fit- 
ting joints minimizing heat leakage. 


Removable sections can be installed to permit ready inspection 
of ship’s hull for painting or repairs. 


Metal sheathed Balsa panels are available for insulation of 
boiler room hatches and crew quarters. 


An article which appeared in the July, 1921, issue of International Marine Engineering, describing 


Balsa ship insulation, and including detailed drawings showing standard plans of installation, 
has been reprinied for distribution to those interested. May we send you a copy of this article?

CLEVELAND, O. 


Recently one of the largest consumers 
of Rivets in this country made inquiry of us for 
price on their contract requirements. Our quo- 
tation did not secure the Beene 

A few days later, we received an inquiry 
from these same aeonlle for a car load of rivets. 
We quoted exactly the same price we named on the 
contract and secured the order. 

Our representative was anxious to know 
why our price on the car load secured the order, 
but failed to secure the contract. 

The Purchasing Agent said, ‘‘Well, the 
job for which we wanted the car load being a 
very particular one, our Shop Superintendent 
insisted on getting VICTOR RIVETS made by The 


Champion Rivet Company''. 


Respectfully submitted, 


THE CHAMPION RIVET COMPANY

Impervious to weather 


A Shepard Electric Traveling 
Crane, in all of its working parts, 
both electrical and mechanical, is 
“element proof’—rain and damp- 
ness, or sleet and snow cannot 
“touch” vital parts. Tight metal 
housings form an impenetrable 
protection. Mill dirt, dust, and 
fumes are likewise effectively 
kept out. 


You buy permanence (steady, 
consistent operation) when you 
invest in a Shepard Crane. It is 
a crane that functions properly 
and dependably as often as called 
into service. 


Thorough, even lubrication of 
Shepard Cranes is provided by 
oil baths in which gears operate. 
All running parts of the crane 
trolley are maintained in correct

alignment, keeping the pressure 
and stresses in gear teeth, bear- 
ings, brakes, etc., within safe 
limits. 


“Shepard” builds Electric Trav- 
eling Cranes in capacities of 1 to 
50 tons; Electric Hoists; Electric 
Monorail Transfer Cranes; Elec-

The necessity of the day is reduced 
overhead. 


A reduction in engine room costs 
is the opportunity open to place 
American Shipping on a sound 
basis. 


Fuel costs, one of the largest items 
of ship overhead, can be reduced 10 
to 15% through superheating. 


The success of Fire Tube High 
Degree Superheaters is proved by 
years of service on 2500 ships oper- 
ating all over the world.

DISSOLVED ACETYLENE 


provides ship builders with the purest cutting and welding 


gas in easily portable, instantly accessible and highly conven-

Without such a supply of uniformly high grade gas always 
at hand, cutters and welders would find impossible many 


applications of the oxy-acetylene process now in common use.

yevvad ~[ Produce! 


NE hundred and forty-four years ago Lavoisier coined the 
name Oxygen. 


In choosing the Greek word I'evviw “I produce,” as 
his main root he had in mind a chemical reaction commonly asso- 
ciated with the gas. 


Had Lavoisier been able to foresee the tremendous part that Linde 
Oxygen is playing in modern industrial development, he would have 
realized the vast significance of that word [‘evvaw “I produce!” 


The country over, Linde Oxygen is daily making possible greater 


production—everywhere it is saving time and cutting costs. 


A chain of seventy-five Linde plants and warehouses assures 
American welders and cutters of a prompt supply of highly pure 
oxygen—wherever they are, whatever their requirements.

5s CHARACTER #'CRAF TSMANSHIP= SERVICE® 


Quick turn-around in port is 
dependent on many factors, not 
least the character of the ship 
herself. Freedom from costly, 
time-wasting repairs, and ade- 
quate cargo-handling and fuel- 
ing facilities are but two meas- 
ures of this character. Records 
of years of continuous opera- 
tion of cargo carriers and liners 
built by New York Ship have 
demonstrated that these ships 
invariably possess those quali- 
ties and all others which assure 
economy of operation. 


RY WT 
oN 


Proper design of hull and power plant, 
craftsmanship in the carrying out of those 
designs, assure satisfactory economical per- 
formance at sea. Ships that stand up under 
hard-driving service year after year; that 
are fast where speed is needed, and low 
in fuel consumption; ships that meet the 
individual requirements of their trade; are 
the ships that are profitable under condi- 
tions of keen competition. Such are the 
ships that are built at New York Ship.

fact that the one on

the direction in which the

the wheel. The power pro- 
ducing action takes place on 
the curved surface at the back of 
the bucket which we have revealed 
by removing a portion of the blade. 


Wear on this surface, because of the 
complete reversal, does not alter the 
entrance or exit angle of the steam. Therefore, the action of the 
steam will remain the same as when the turbine was new, which 
means that the efficiency will like-wise remain unaltered.

Certified Pure Metals Only Are Used | 


The purest metals only are selected for making Wheeler 
Crescent Brand Tubes. The chief metals are copper, zinc and 
tin, which are compounded in various proportions according 
to the formula required. All metals are closely checked by 
chemical analysis and any shipment not conforming to our 
rigid specifications is rejected. ‘This is one means of guaran- 
teeing high grade and uniform tubes. 


Metals Are Melied in Electric Furnaces 


By melting the metals in electric furnaces, we reduce oxida-

to maintain high standard physical properties and adhere 
very closely to a specified formula.

Tubes Are Cold-Drawn to Size and Gauge 


Wheeler Crescent Brand Tubes are cold-drawn to specified 
dimensions on powerful benches designed to draw the metal slowly 
and steadily through highly polished steel dies. On the inside of 
the tube is a polished steel plug on a rod which is so placed within 
the die as to prevent the tube from collapsing while it is being 
worked to the required dimensions. 


All Annealing is Under Expert Supervision 


After each cold-drawing operation, the metal is annealed in order 
to recrystallize it and remove distortion caused by the strain. This 


ing pyrometers and by recording instruments, thereby maintaining an 
accurate check on heat treatment of materials during the process 
of manufacture, as well as of the finished product. 


Annealing is very exacting and requires constant supervision 
At the Wheeler Tube Mill, annealing is done by men long associated 
in the wrought brass business. 


Finally Tested to 1,000-Pounds Pressure 


After Wheeler Crescent Brand Tubes are finished and cut to 
required lengths, they are passed to a testing machine wherein 


each tube is subjected to a hydraulic pressure of 1,000 pounds 
per square inch. 


Any defect developed during the manufacture of tubes may 
become apparent under this test, and every faulty tube is rejected. 


This severe pressure test demonstrates 
the necessity of all the care which we ex- 
ercise in selecting materials, in casting, in

treatment of Wheeler Crescent Brand

Metals Are Melted in Electric Furnaces 


_ By melting the metals in electric furnaces, we reduce oxida-

to maintain high standard physical properties and adhere 
very closely to a specified formula.

_ Copper and Muntz metal (60% copper, 40% zinc) are cast in solid

of Scotch Marine Boiler bank in Foster Marine Water-tube Boiler 


Superheat is rapidly becoming standard practice in the merchant marine 
as it enables the steam prime mover to increase its efficiency at the minimum 
expense in first cost and upkeep cost. 


Over fifty percent of all American steamships in foreign trade are fitted 
with superheaters. [he major portion of these develop a superheat of 50 


fr 7/5)® JB, 


This amount of superheat can be used in triple expansion engines with- 
out oil for lubrication of cylinder walls. A moderate amount of superheat is 
also sufficient to overcome the priming that occurs with all types of boilers 
when heavily salted. 


Foster Marine Superheaters are used in over seventy-five percent of the 
American ships equipped with superheaters. [hey are of the well known 
Foster Extended Surface type similar to the recognized standard in land 
plants. Their rugged construction is especially suitable for marine use where 
conditions are much more severe than in locomotive or stationary work.

PIPE THAT 
| BENDS WELL 


—an important requirement 
in the shipyard 


PRE unusual ductility of “NATIONAL” 


Pipe gives a bend with minimum distor- 
tion of cross-section and free from objection- 


able buckling. 


The high tensile strength and sound welds 
maintain the required bursting strength of the 
pipe after it has been subjected to the severe 
stretching and compressive stresses of bending 
and flanging, while the elasticity remains 
amply high for absorbing the service stresses 
for which the bend may be designed. 


Because of these factors, “NATIONAL” 
Pipe for bending and flanging purposes is 
exceptionally able to meet the requirements 
of the shipbuilding engineer.

1 Train of sturdy stub-tooth gears. 
Made of special alloy steel. Transmits 
uninterrupted power to the drill spindle. 
No lost motion due to over-travel or 
slippage. 33% faster than drives of 
the ratchet type. 


2 Thrust ball bearing carries feed 
screw pressure. Note spindle gear 
forged integral with spindle. 


3 Roller bearings support gear train. 
Ample provision for thorough lubrica- 
tion of working parts by means of 
‘*splash’’ system. 


4 One-piece, solid forged steel crank- 
shaft, having two throws with Pins at 
go degrees. Crankshaft is of ample 
proportions and strength throughout. 


5 Crossheads prevent side wear of 
cylinder walls and pistons. This con- 
struction parallels high-grade steam 
engine practice, insuring permanent 
alignment and long life of reciprocating 
parts. 


6 Balanced piston valves fitted so that 
only room for the oil film is allowed. 
Provides a near perfect seal and re- 
quires the minimum of power to operate. 
Result—long life of parts and highest 
economy. 


7 Thevalve pistons operate in replace- 
able, long-wearing bronze bushings, in- 
suring long service and low upkeep cost. 


8 The sturdy forged steel toggles and 
connecting rods are capable of with- 
standing the severest service. 


9 The pistons are machined from solid 
stock, heat treated and ground to size, 
resulting in longest wear. 


10 Standard Little Giant throttle con- 
trol permits ease of operation with 
consequentincreased production. Little 
Giant is the only close-quarters air 
drill which can be reversed from the 
throttle.

Service economy,—long life with a minimum cost fer upkeep, is the domi- 
nant factor which has led to the selection of LUNKENHEIMER Iron Body 
Valves as “standard equipment” on many merchant fleets. 


Their success in service is the direct result of the combination of correct 
design with proper materials and the LUNKENHEIMER method of manu- 
facture. 


LUNKENHEIMER “Valve-iron” and LUNKENHEIMER “Valve- 
bronze” are formulated especially for valve service and the LUNKEN- 
HEIMER method of manufacture insures dependable results under pre- 
scribed operating conditions. 


The line embraces a variety of patterns which experience has demon- 
strated are most efficient for marine service and whose performance and dura- 
bility fully measure up to the LUNKENHEIMER high quality standard. 


There is a LUNKENHEIMER Distributor in practically every port ready 
to give prompt service. Specify LUNKENHEIMER Iron Body Valves and

Pride 
of France 
Saves Oil with a 


DE LAVAL 
Oil Purifier 


HE S. S. Paris, of the French line, is the 

largest and most luxurious vessel ever con- 
structed in France. Her builders have gone 
the limit to make her the last word in design, 
construction and operation. Naturally they 
have a De Laval Oil Purifier aboard to remove 
water and dirt from her lubricating oil and 
keep her turbine bearings in perfect condition. 


Po The De Laval Oil Purifier on the Paris does two things: 
| First, it gives her machinery longer life and lessens bearing 
troubles by keeping clean oil in the system at all times. Sec- 
ond, it obviates the necessity for ever pumping oil overboard 
| and so materially reduces the cost of lubrication. Just this last 
; feature of De Laval performance will pay for installing a ma- 
fee chine within a short time. The De Laval Oil Purifier is simple 
ie in operation and positive in action. Strong centrifugal force 
| removes impurities from the oil in heavy seas, as well as when 
the ship is in port. 


De Laval Bulletins Nos. 102 and 103 give further interesting 
information. They are yours for the asking.

MARINE ENGINEERING

The final cost of a marine boiler is affected by many 
factors, among which are first cost, fuel cost for steam 
produced, cleaning and repairing costs, useful life of 
boiler, and cost of any delay of ship due to boiler 
repairs, renewals, etc. 


It is seldom true that the cheapest in first cost is 
also the cheapest in final cost, but this is a fact when 
comparing marine boilers. of the Scotch and water-tube 
types. Not only is the more modern and efficient 
water-tube boiler operating on present-day steam pres- 
sures less expensive in first cost than on Scotch boil- 
ers of equal capacity, but its repair cost is less, and it 


Cost—The Deciding Factor For All Boilers 


eliminates the renewal cost required by the short-lived 
Scotch type. The smaller weight of water-tube boilers 
results in a larger cargo-carrying and profit-earning 
Capacity, the reduction of which with Scotch boilers 
should be taken into consideration when determining 
the final cost of marine boilers. 


The first cost of Foster Boilers is not only less than 
that of similar sized Scotch boilers but the other fac- 
tors that affect final cost are also less where Foster 
Boilers are used. : 


The reason for the low Foster Boiler costs can be 
readily obtained from our catalog.

SOOT REMOVAL FROM SCOTCH 


MARINE BOILERS 


is effectively accomplished by the improved Diamond Rear End Blower 
(Model B). 


And soot removal is essential to economy. Power is one of the largest 
items of expense in the cost of operating a vessel, and the cost of fuel 
represents on the average 70 per cent. of the cost of power. The pres- 
ence of soot has cost—it still costs—a loss of hundreds of thousands of 
tons of coal and hundreds of thusands of barrels of fuel oil a year to ship 
owners. Soot waste has been eliminated on many ships, and it can be 
eliminated on all with a consequent notable increase in boiler efficiency 
and a consequent great increase in marine profits. 


Method of installing Model B blowers 
Thousands of Diamond Model B Blowers are in use today on Scotch on a three-furnace Scotch boiler. 


Marine boiler. The blower is permanently installed through the rear 
water leg, a hole being cut in the plates and a section of tubing expanded 
and beaded into place. The blower is encased in this tubing. When not 
in use the blower is secreted in the casing. As the steam is turned on 
the nozzle is automatically forced forward into blowing position. In 
operation dry steam is shot into each tube with the draft at a terrific 
velocity, sweeping and scouring the soot from the full length of the tubes. 
Diamond Soot Blowers save fuel and labor. Write for full information on blowers for 


any type of boiler, requesting your copy of Bulletin 134, ‘How Some Ship Owners Have 
Increased Their Profits.’

The World’s First Diesel-Electric Cargo Ship 


HE reliability and efficiency of Diesel engine-electric 
drive will soon be further demonstrated on the 2,200 
dead weight ton ‘‘Fordonian” to be the world’s first 
Diesel-electric cargo ship, now having its Diesel-direct 
drive replaced by Diesel-electric drive at the Tebo Yacht 
Basin of the Todd Shipyards Corporation. 


The General Electric Company with its many years ex- 
perience in the marine field was the first to successfully 
apply Diesel-electric propulsion to ships. The electric 
@quipment for the 150-foot fishing trawler ‘‘Mariner” 
was furnished by this Company and has been in service 
since February, 1920. 

Diesel engine-electric drive with G-E electric equipment 
was chosen for the ‘“‘Fordonian”’ because of its highoverall 
economy, saving in hull space, ease and flexibility of 
control, and reliability. 

The General Electric Company supplies generating and 
control apparatus, propulsion motors, and motors for 
engine room and deck auxiliaries of every kind for Diesel- 
electric ships.

“Repaired with

He made a remarkably successful repair 
on a 42 in. cylinder of a 22x42x30 (see

only has the repair proved a permanent 
one but has saved many dollars against 
replacing a new part. Read what the

Smooth-On. This crack started on the 
42 in. cylinder, in part under the flange 
and went to the bottom, then went to the 
top of cylinder. Laced the crack with 
copper, which was useless, made two 
patches with %4 in. boiler plate, poured 
Jead behind patch. This was unsatisfactory as we had to caulk it every day. As we were gomg to shut 
this pump down for two weeks for other repairs, it was then I wrote you for advice, and you advised 
Smooth-On No. 3 mixed with No. 1, used the same patches, removed the copper lacing and lead, filled 
crack with No. 1 Smooth-On and let harden, mixed No. 1 and No. 3 as directed, bolted the patch solid, 
this left a small space between flange and patch. Heated and bent a piece of 1%4 m. angle iron to the 
flange, also to the sweep of cylinder, drilled 436 cap bolts into edge of flange and slated the holes im

set clamps and brought angle iron up solid against patch, then set 3@ bolts in edge of flange, and we have 
got a tight and permanent job, have had steam on it now about 6 weeks. It has never showed so much 
as a weep in any way. The cost, compared with the results obtained, was practically nothing. Will be 
pleased to answer any inquiries or better still, would like to show it to any one who may call.

The heating of fuel oil before discharging 
it through oil burners is a necessary opera- 
tion, consequently your oil heater is a very 
important part of your oil burning system. 
Oil is a poor conductor of heat, and in 
order to heat it efficiently and quickly it 
should be caused to flow over the heating 
surfaces in a film-like condition and at a 
high velocity in order to obtain maximum 
heat transfer. 


On account of the thick and viscous crude 
oils and residuum which are employed to- 
day for fuel purposes, this maximum heat 
transfer will not maintain unless the heat- 
ing surfaces of your heater can be kept 
clean. Would you have a boiler in your 
plant whose heating surfaces could not be 
cleaned? 


This latest “COEN” product is the 
result of years of scientific experimenting 
and testing, and in offering it to you we 
offer an oil heater that for Efficiency, 
Economy, Strength and Durability has no

On the passenger boat the comfort and health of 
passengers means that a dependable system of ven- 
tilation must be at hand—whether at the dock or 
at sea. 

Climatic changes on the sea-going vessel, to 
which all ships are subject, demand forced and 
positive ventilation for the sake of quality of the 
cargo or comfort of the passengers.

Sirocco fans, blowers and air-washers furnish this 
dependable ventilation for any type of boat. Aside 
from ventilation, “A B C” engines are used to op-

Will Your Condenser Tubes 


Season Crack? 
Try These Tests 


Flattening Test Cut off a section about 4 inches long from a con- 


: denser tube. Hammer flat one end of it, then ham- 
mer the opposite end. If the metal cracks, it indicates a defect or else extreme 
hardness. Hard drawn tubing is usually associated with season cracking. 


Accelerated Corrosion Test "me 2 small section of 


tubing for 15 minutes in a 10 
per cent solution of mercurous nitrate solution. If severe strains are present in the 
metal, the tube will crack in a manner similar to season cracking. This test was 
used by the United States government in testing 75 mm. brass shrapnel cases to 
determine whether they would deteriorate in storage. We will be pleased to furnish 
full directions for making up this: solution. 


Scovill Tubing 


is a product based on knowl- 
edge acquired after a century 
of brass making. Owing to the 
fact that it has been relieved 
from drawing strains, it will 
not season crack. Furthermore 
its extremely fine grain offers 
greater resistance to corrosion, 
resulting in longer life. It pays 
to buy condenser tubes on the 
basis of length of service rather : : d

Gives An Evaporation Test of 16.73 


Lbs. of Water to 1 Lb. of Oil 


VAPORATION tests of a Ward 

Watertube Boiler conducted by 
a Board of U. S. Naval Engineers 
established this record. The corre- 
sponding efficiency is 81.68%. 


There are two points to bear in mind 
in this connection— 


(1) that this efficiency is due 
largely to the excellent design 
and construction of structural 
parts and assembly of the 
Ward Boiler—and 


(2) that all Ward Boilers are built 
alike and any one of them can 
render as good a performance 
as the above tests show.

The Typical Maag Tooth 


For Strength— Use the Gear 
With the Strongest Tooth 


Maag Gears are strong where strength counts most. 
At the base of the teeth where the ordinary pinion 
is often weakest, Maag teeth are always strongest. 
This feature of Maag Gear design distinguishes them 
from other gears. The extra metal—see diagrams in 
circle below—placed at the point of greatest stress 
increases the margin of safety. It assures freedom 
from tooth breakage. It keeps Maag gears on the 
job under conditions that cut short the life of 
ordinary gears. 


You need strong, slow feet in diameter and in 
wearing, long-lived gears spur, helical, spiral and 
in your equipment. Maag herringbone types—a se- 
Gears: are produced in lection to cover any of 
sizes from 2 inches to 40 your needs.

Better Than The Law Demands 


A ship wireless equipment may meet the 
requirements of the law, and yet it may be 
ten years behind the radio times. 


The set which is installed on a ship by the 
Radio Corporation of America always embodies 
the highest engineering skill. It is far more ef- 
ficient than the law demands—far more trust- 
worthy. It is the result of the systematic 


development of wireless by the Radio Cor- 
poration of America over a period of twenty 


years. 


Thousands of vessels are now equipped with 
the efficient apparatus of the Radio Corpora- 


tion of America—apparatus which is better 
than the law demands. 


The sets of the Radio Corporation of America 
are the most efficient that scientific skill can 
produce. For behind the Radio Corporation of 
America stand the splendidly equipped Re- 
search Laboratories of the General Electric 
Company, The American Telephone & Tele- 
graph Company and The Western Electric 
Company, where, year in and year out, eminent 
physicists conduct investigations that result in 
new radio advances. No other company enjoys 
the benefit of this scientific research in the field 
of radio communication.

| An Efficient Pipe 
Covering Should 
Not be Heavy 


Every ounce of weight beyond that 
really necessary for structural strength 
is a detriment and is likely to induce 
sagging. 


Some well known pipe coverings weigh 
from 18 to 42 pounds per cubic foot. 
85% Magnesia Pipe and Boiler Covering 
weighs approximately 12 pounds per 
cubic foot, and yet its crushing strength 


may be conservatively rated at 100 pounds 
to the square inch of standard thickness! 
A heavy man can stand on a half section 
of 85% Magnesia Pipe Covering, placed 
flat and unsupported on the floor, without 
crushing it. 


It would be easy to make 85% Mag-

greater weight, if that were desirable.

The RELIABLE REFRIGERATION 


for every Practical Purpose on Board Ship 


——— ed 


The governing factor in the selection of Marine Refrigerating 
Equipment, in most cases, is the reliability of the machine. Can 
it be absolutely depended upon to perform the work? An en- 
forced shut-down of the refrigerating machine while on a voyage 
may mean the loss of a large portion of the ship stores, or perhaps 
of the cargo. 


Wl 


York Refrigerating Machines have demonstrated their absolute 
reliability by more than thirty-five years of satisfactory service, 


which has given them a high reputation throughout the refrigerating 
field. 


Hundreds of vessels now plying the seven seas employ York 
Mechanical Refrigeration, to the satisfaction of their crews and 
profit of the owners. We invite all shipping interests to investi- 
gate the York Systems of Marine Refrigeration, and believe it 
will prove profitable to them.

we are more than satisfied with our selec-

involved in boarding about three hundred 
vessels off the Virginia Capes and we can 
imagine no more severe test than this.” 


Now They Have Four “C-O” 
Engines and Write This— 


“We have previously given you as strong 
an endorsement as possible of the two 75 
H.P.’s which you installed in our 118 ft.

no definite relation between the grain structure of 
a weld and its tensile properties, making therefore 
comparative tests essential. 


For comparative efficiency of Weld to parent or

The Pipe Is Out 
of Line — BUT 


The GOETZE GASKET 
Is Holding Tight 


Even if the pressure is high with a poor job in pipe fit- 
ting you can make any joint tight with a Goetze Gasket. 


The resilient deep corrugation in 
the copper or other metal and the 
spun asbestos rings take care of that. 
They remain in perfect contact with 
the flange surface, regardless of ex- 
pansion and contraction. : 
Goetze Gaskets last as long as the 
pipe line. You can remove them 
and re-use them with assured tight- 
ness. 

We are ready now to convince you 
that Goetze Gaskets, Goetzerit 
Sheet Packing and Goetze Valve 
Discs are unbeatable in any service.

when making repairs. Each time a turn= 
buckle is used the workman must find a 
wrench or bar with which to turn the buckle. 
How much time does that workman lose 
while hunting that wrench or bar? 

When the turnbuckle must be loosened the

FIRE 


The most dreaded peril of the sea 


—takes annually its toll of human lives. 2% of lives lost 
at sea are caused by fire. 7% of all casualties are due to fire. 
In the World War only 4.5% died from wounds. 


—destroys millions of dollars worth of property needed by 
the people of the world. One-seventh of all property lost 
at sea is lost on account of fire. 


—causes untold losses on account of delays, inconvenience to 
shippers and consignees, with consequent loss of faith and 
good will. The shipowner and operator bear the brunt of 
this loss. Insurance does not pay for this. 


—increases operating expenses through higher insurance 
premiums. 


The greatest fire hazard is in holds and closed compartments. 


SAFE T Y 


may be secured by the 


RICH SMOKE SYSTEM 


Detects, locates and extinguishes fires in the holds and closed

by Federal Law.

The Bradley Hammer has been found practically in- 
dispensable for forging liners in shipyards. Accurate 
and rapid, these hammers attain big results in many kinds 
of forgings. They are built to stand the strain of con- 
tinuous work. 


Pressure on the foot treadle starts the hammer by 
bringing the idler pulley against the drive belt. When 
the treadle is released a brake stops the hammer. 


Both the speed and force of the blow are thus com- 
pletely under control of the operator.

\V/ESING Marine Engine Oil — for 
thrust bearing and reciprocating en- 
gine lubrication—is the latest develop- 
ment among the Sun Marine Oils. It 
conforms in efficiency with the high stand- 
ards maintained for years in the famous 


Sun XX Marine Oil. 


Viking Engine Oil, by reason of a 
special patented refining process, will form 
a perfect and lasting emulsion with either 
salt or fresh water. 


The body of this emulsion may be 
varied from a heavy pastelike substance 
to any consistency by the simple addition 
of a larger percentage of water. 


For lubrication of thrust bearings an 
emulsion of Viking Oil with from 50 to 
75 per cent water is recommended. 


When used for main bearings without 
the addition of water, Viking Oil has 
high viscosity and extremely low internal 
frictional values. It will absorb any 
water that may find its way into the bear- 
ings and will feed indefinitely through a 
wick without clogging the pores. 


Viking Marine Engine Oil 


of oils highly compounded with blown 
rape seed, Viking Marine Engine Oil 
will not. deteriorate and become rancid 
with age. 


In addition, Viking Oil is neutral in 
reaction and contains no fatty acids, thus 
eliminating the corrosion of metal parts 
produced by the high acid content of 
most marine oils. It is unaffected by low 
temperatures. 


The Sun Company is one of the 
world’s largest producers, refiners and 
shippers of petroleum products. Its out- 
put of lubricating oils alone exceeds a 
million and a half gallons per week. 


The Sun Company has specialized for 
a quarter century in lubricating oils. It 
has developed into an organization of 
lubrication experts, its aim being to sup- 
ply accurate and efficient lubrication in- 
stead of just “oil.” 


The choice of a lubricant for any par- 
ticular purpose demands expert advice. 
Engineers of the Sun Company are avail- 
able to make an analysis of your lubrica- 
tion requirements and specify the right

STEWARD BOAT RELEASING 


Approved by U. S. Steamboat Inspection Service 
British Board of Trade and Requirements 
of Other Governments 


PATENTED IN U. S. A. AND FOREIGN COUNTRIES 


READILY INSTALLED IN 


To operate the Steward Boat Releasing Gear a single 
lever is thrown over, revolving the shaft and releasing 
in less than a half turn. There are no chains, wires or 
thin bars in tension or compression; accidental release is 


impossible. 


The action is positive and can only be done with delibera- 
tion, but is so simple that in emergency any one can safely 
release a lifeboat full of people. The leverage is so 
powerful that very little effort is required even when the 
boat is not waterborne.

Detail of Operation 


NEW OR OLD BOATS 


The falls may be instantly attached to the hooks with- 
out moving the lever and cannot drop out when slack; 
they may be disengaged just as readily if desired. 


It has been the experience of practical seamen that the 
Steward Releasing Gear solves the problem of clearing 
away a boat in a seaway. No matter how high the sea 
you can release both ends instantly when the word is 


passed. One turn of the lever and the boat is afloat.

Oil Engines 


Price Oil Engines are flexible. The average 
time for reversing from full speed ahead to full 
speed astern is only seven seconds. The en- 
gine control and reversing are accomplished by 
a single lever, there being no shifting of cams, 
camshafts or gears. 


These oil engines operate on the four stroke 
cycle. Ignition is by temperature of compres- 
sion only. The fuel atomization is direct and 
positive without the use of compressed air. 


Price Marine Oil Engines are built in sizes 
ranging from 150 to 750 H.P.

ACHINING operations are an impor- 

tant item of production cost which 
is materially reduced where Shepard Elec- 
tric Hoists are installed. 


The operator of a Shepard waives assistance, 
for he has in his control all necessary equip- 
ment for handling the heavy pieces and plac- 
ing them in the precise position. 


“Shepards” do the work rapidly and are 
economical in operation and maintenance. 
If you have anything to be picked up, car- 
ried, and put down, give it to a Shepard, for 
in so doing you are providing efficient, de- 
pendable, and profitable means for doing the 
work.

Shepard Engineers have planned many suc- 
cessful handling and transfer systems that 
have materially aided in reducing produc- 
tion costs. Their services are extended to 
you.. You assume no obligation in inquiring. 


Shepard builds Electric Hoists 1% to 30 tons, 
Electric Travelling Cranes 1 to 50 tons, 
Electric Winches, and Electric Cargo Hand- 
ling Equipment for Docks and Ships.

Setting the broken nose of commerce 


HE oxy-acetylene welding and cutting torches — 
those twin metal surgeons—are indispensable in 


ship yards. 


Wherever metals must be cut or joined neatly, 
quickly and economically the oxy-acetylene process is 
invaluable. 


DISSOLVED ACETYLENE 


because of its portability, has made it possible to 
weld or cut in the most inaccessible places. Wherever 
the job may be—below or aloft, inside or out—Prest- 


O-Lite goes to the job! 


Forty Plants and Warehouses insure a constant and 
unlimited supply of uniformly pure gas. Write us 
about the Prest-O-Lite nation-wide service plan.

to read this! 


UT the gas your eye pierces—the gas you inhale at every 
breath—is but the raw material for Linde Oxygen. 


Every trace of physical contamination must be eliminated, every 
chemical impurity removed before atmospheric oxygen is pure 
enough to meet Linde requirements. 

To that end a great army of Linde scientists are constantly at 
work rigidly maintaining the high standard of Linde purity. To 
their efforts is due the absolute uniformity for which Linde Oxygen 
is famous. 

A chain of seventy-five plants and warehouses insures prompt 
deliveries of any volume, anywhere.

ROM the sailing ship of earlier days to the specialized, oil-burning, steel cargo-carrier 
of today; through all its ups and downs to its present outstanding position, the Ameri- 
can Merchant Marine has fostered and will maintain those traditions which enrich the 

history of sea transportation. 

For nearly a quarter century, the New York Shipbuilding Corporation has contributed 
of its skill and its ideals to the upbuilding of that which is best in our merchant and naval 
fleets of today. The largest single unit in America’s shipbuilding capacity, New York Ship 
started unhampered by limitations of physical layout or inherited practices. Its founders 
had the vision and the ability to pioneer in the adoption and development of many ship- 
building methods now accepted as standard by all. 

These ideals have been steadfastly maintained; and upon the foundation of complete 
plant facilities and modern steel-working practice there has grown up a tradition of accom- 
plishment in the building of good ships—ships that proudly take leadership in the greater 
American Merchant Marine, that reflect New York Ship’s 


“CHARACTER—CRAFTMANSHIP—SERVICE”

The finest equipment in the world cannot run indefinitely 
without attention or repair. While every precaution and care 
1s taken in the design and construction of Terry Turbines to 
make them long-lived and fool-proof, there is still the pos- 
sibility that repairs or spare parts may be necessary. The 
unusual accessibility of Terry Turbines would be useless with- 
outa well maintained stock room from which repair part orders 
may be immediately filled. The interchangeability of those 
spare parts is further insurance against prolonged shutdowns.

Information on $20,761,000 in 
New Marine Work Presented 
During Exposition Week 


HAT are naval architects, consulting engineers, shipbuilders 

and ship repair men and ship and pier equipment men most 
vitally interested in at the present moment? In the light of present 
conditions this question may be answered by the one word— 
“Contracts.” 


With this subject in mind it may be interesting to know that 
MARINE ENGINEERING AND SHIPPING AGE in its daily edition pub- 
lished during the exposition presented to its advertisers and gen- 
eral readers advance information of new vessel construction, repair 
work, and port and pier developments having a total estimated valu- 
ation of more than $20,761,000. And, mind you, this vast sum of 
money appertains to contracts for all classes of maritime work which 
have not yet been placed! 


We call attention to these facts and figures to back our contention 
that MARINE ENGINEERING AND SHIPPING AGE provides the only 
top-notch service to its advertisers and we take the opportunity of 
asking this question: “Can you afford to be without such a service— 
a service which has so vital a bearing on your actual business 
interests?” 


It is upon such a foundation that we base our claim that MARINE 
ENGINEERING AND SHIPPING AGE’S Weekly Bulletin and monthly 
magazine are without equal in the marine field. After the close of 
the exposition, the Weekly Bulletin of Advance Information was 
resumed as heretofore, and the December number of the magazine 
will contain articles which were precluded from publication in the 
Daily Bulletin because of lack of space. 


Comparison of our weekly and monthly publications with any 
other in the field 1s invited; we are sparing no time or effort to pro- 
vide a worth while service to our advertisers and if you will take 
the time to look over the situation we have no fear as to what your 
decision will be.

RUSTSOLVO 


The product that is destined to save billions 
of dollars yearly in connection with metal re- 
pair work in Shipbuilding and Repair Yards, 
on Board Ship, Railroads, Automobiles and 


Trucks, Farm Machinery, Plumbing and Con- 


struction Work, etc. 


When Overhauling 
the Propeller 


Rigidly bolted propellers of the built-up type can be 
easily taken apart without breakage by using Rustsolvo. 


Where blades, bolts and nuts are solidly united by 
corrosion, a small quantity of Rustsolvo properly ap- 
plied will seep right through and free every frozen or 
corroded part, which can then be loosened without 
force or breakage. 


Think of the tremendous saving of material. “Think 
how quickly the work can be done, and the amount 
of time saved. 


By the use of Rustsolvo, the problem of rust in pro- 
peller repairs is solved. 


Rustsolvo is a scientific solvent in liquid form which, 
when applied to rusted joints, bolts and nuts, quickly 
frees these parts, permitting their quick removal with- 
out destruction of material.

Cuts Rust 


Eliminates the Problem 


of Odd Bolts 


Odd rivets are the ever present drag in lowering your 
riveting costs. Try as you will, they seem to appear 
in every part of the ship. And what a saving you 
would realize if you could eliminate this evil. 


The chief cause is rust bound bolts. No piece work 
riveter will stop to bother with a bolt if it does not 
respond to his first attempt to loosen it. If it is frozen 
with rust, he passes by. 


But if the riveter had with him the means of loosening 
that bolt with no effort on his part, the results would 
be different. 


It lies within your power to supply him with this means. 
Rustsolvo is a liquid which cuts rust. A few drops 
applied to a rust bound bolt and a child can loosen it. 
Equipped with a small can of Rustsolvo, the riveter 
would have no cause to leave a trail of rust tight bolts 


behind him.

Where Strength means Safety 


When a man buys Whitlock Manila Rope he purchases more than 
simply first-class cordage—he buys protection, safety insurance for 
his life and property. And he gets it. For Whitlock Rope stands 
up manfully under the hardest work. 


WAITLOCK CORDAGE 


THE UTMOST IN ROPE VALUE 


By its superior service, Whitlock Rope creates a great goodwill in favour of the 
dealer who supplies it. And, fortunately for the user of rope, even the first cost of 
Whitlock is less, for it has greater length per pound. Naturally, progressive dealers 
throughout the country are building business with Whitlock Guaranteed Cordage. 


Whitlock Manila is the rope that is guaranteed superior to U.S. Government 
Specifications not only in strength and length per pound, but also in quality of fiber. 
If you are a user of rope, Whitlock can save you money; if you are a dealer, it 
can make more money for you. 


Write today for our 1921 Catalog which tells the complete story of Whitlock 
Manila and Sisal products. And ask for the Whitlock distributor or dealer in 
your vicinity. a:

WHEELER STEAM JET AIR PUMPS 


Maintain High Vacuum Efficiently Without 
Complicated and Expensive Accessories 


N the Wheeler Steam Jet Air Pump the 
inter-condenser between the two jets 
condenses the steam in the air-steam 

mixture from the first jet, reducing the 
volume to be entrained in the second stage 
jet. This reduces steam consumption to 
one-half that needed if no inter-condenser 
is used. 


In the combined inter-condenser and 
heater type, here illustrated, condensate 
from the main condenser circulates 
through the inter-condenser and a heater 
recelving the discharge of the second jet, 
thus absorbing practically all of the heat of 
the actuated steam from the mixtures dis- 
charged by both jets. No air separating 
chamber is required and air is not intro- 
duced into the condensate or feed water. 


Other features of this type are:

The increasing use of superheat 
in the marine field 


The cost of marine fuel has increased in the last few 
years to a point where it is receiving considerable atten- 
tion. ‘Io improve the fuel economy of marine propel- 
ling equipment, water-tube boilers, turbines, and high 
vacuum equipment have been installed, on many ships, 
and over one thousand ships have been fitted with super- 
heaters. 


The fuel consumption of an existing installation can 
be reduced at less expense by adding superheaters than 
by any other method, and the fuel saving effected by 
Foster Superheaters is greater than obtained from high 
priced, high grade equipment of other types. In many 
cases the cost of Foster Superheaters has been saved in 
from two to three years’ operation. ‘This is particularly 
true in the case of Scotch marine boilers, where the super- 
heat can be obtained from the waste gases without any 
additional fuel being burned. 


In a very recent case a large tow boat company 
HostocmSunerheateumine checked the performance of two duplicate tugs, one with 
stalled in uptake of and the other without Foster waste heat type superheaters. 
Scotch Boiler The fuel saving of 20% is paying for the superheaters 

in less than two years. 


In many Scotch boilers the steam space is small and 
when the boilers are salted severe priming occurs, causing 
rapid wearing of turbine blades or short life of engine 
piston rings. Foster waste heat superheaters entirely elimi- 
nate this trouble and save considerable in turbine or engine 
repairs. This also prevents delays in the ships’ operation, 
which results in a very attractive additional saving. 


Superheat has become standard in land 
plants and at the present rate of progress will 
be standard in marine plants in the next few 
years. If America is to keep her place on 
the seas her ships must follow the proven 
economy of her land plants. The American 
stationary plants are admitted the peer of all 
others and the American marine plants will 
unquestionably win the same prestige when 
advantage is taken of known successful fuel 
saving methods.

A coat of armor against rust 


Men that own and operate ships are large users of 
Dutch Boy Red-Lead —the tough, elastic, waterproof 
paint that protects metal surfaces from rust. 


The U. S. Navy, for instance, uses red-lead on all its 
vessels for almost every metal surface, because it with- 
stands the action of salt water and preserves the steel. 


Dutch Boy Red-Lead has the added advantage of 
greater spreading power than other paints for marine 
use. It gives a coat of uniform thickness and tough- 
ness, and won’t chip, peel, or scale. 


Dutch Boy Red-Lead does not harden in the pail. 
That means no red-lead wasted. No time lost. 


Specify Dutch Boy Red-Lead for all metal surfaces, 
paste or liquid form. Can be tinted to your require- 
ments for finishing coats.

SOOT REMOVAL FROM SCOTCH 


MARINE BOILERS 


is effectively accomplished by the improved Diamond Rear End Blower 
(Model B). 


And soot removal is essential to economy. Power is one of the largest 
items of expense in the cost of operating a vessel, and the cost of fuel 
represents on the average 70 per cent. of the cost of power. The pres- 
ence of soot has cost—it still costs—a loss of hundreds of thousands of 
tons of coal and hundreds of thusands of barrels of fuel oil a year to ship 
owners. Soot waste has been eliminated on many ships, and it can be 
eliminated on all with a consequent notable increase in boiler efficiency 
and a consequent great increase in marine profits. 


Method of installing Model B blowers 
Thousands of Diamond Model B Blowers are in use today on Scotch on a three-furnace Scotch boiler. 
Marine boiler. The blower is permanently installed through the rear 

water leg, a hole being cut in the plates and a section of tubing expanded 

and beaded into place. The blower is encased in this tubing. When not 

in use the blower is secreted in the casing. As the steam is turned on 

the nozzle is automatically forced forward into blowing position. In 

operation dry steam is shot into each tube with the draft at a terrific 

velocity, sweeping and scouring the soot from the full length of the tubes. 


Diamond Soot Blowers save fuel and labor. Write for full information on blowers for 
any type of boiler, requesting your copy of Bulletin 134, ‘‘How Some Ship Owners Have 
Increased Their Profits.”

Why do Condenser Tubes Fail? 


ONDENSER tubes would last forever if they neither SEASON CRACKED nor CORRODED. 
Metallographic investigations in recent years have thrown new light on the causes of season 
cracking and modern manufacturers have taken steps towards preventing this very objection- 

able condition. As for corrosion, we cannot entirely prevent it. We can, however, often tell what 
causes it and we can either supply the proper alloy or suggest the necessary changes in operation to 
minimize it. 


COVILL ADMIRALTY TUBING has a remarkable structure when seen under the micro- 
scope. Its grain is exceedingly fine and uniform in size. This fine dense structure, coupled with 
the fact that the metal is absolutely homogeneous and free from casting defects, offers the great- 

est resistance to corrosion. Scovill condenser tubing has remarkable stiffness and yet it can be flat- 
tened upon itself without cracking. It will stand an unusual degree of expansion and can be twisted 
without showing any distress. Its high degree of elasticity and its entire freedom from drawing 
strains make it immune from season cracking.

y is this Copper Heater 
oil Crimped ? 


The “crimped” copper coil shown at left is 
one of those which go to make up the heating 
surface of the 


Reilly ws. Heater 


The “Crimp” referred to above is an indenta- 
tion throughout the length of the tubing. Due 
to the helical construction of the coils a whirl- 
ing motion is imparted to the water passing 
through them and centrifugal force throws the 
water particles near the center of the tubes to 
the outside, while those on the outside are in 
turn displaced and returned to the center. The 
“crimping” of the tubing further assists in 
breaking up the body of water flowing through 
the coils and the rapid agitation of the water 
resulting from the helical type of coil, together 
with the crimped construction, insure remark- 
ably high heat transfer. 


Marine Engineers 
will appreciate these facts 


Door in shell permits easy access to interior. 
Coils may be removed by one man with a wrench. 
All coils are interchangeable. 

Every coil a spring—no expansion strains on coil 
joints.

The modern processes used in the manufacture of “NATIONAL” 
Pipe tend primarily to produce durability and dependability in the 
product, but they also result in practical working advantages for those 
who install ship piping. 


“NATIONAL” Pipe is exceptionally workable, because, among other 
things, it is uniform and strong; is sound in wall and weld; is clean 
and smooth, inside and out; and, being homogeneous and ductile, 
gives clean, strong threads and good bends.

NOTE—The vessels marked with an asterisk (*) will on December 15, 1921, be offered for sale for “Conver- 
sion to Commercial Uses.’ Such vessels as are not sold on that date will be offered on January 16, 1922, for sale 


as “Hulks for Salvage.” 


The offer of these vessels by the Navy Department for sale to commercial organiza- 
tions should be considered from the standpoint of a nucleus to go into the ship breaking 
up field for some “farsighted concern” looking for new business. 


Aside from the ferrous and non-ferrous metals entering into Naval ship construc- 
tion, consider the electrical machinery, pumps, winches, boilers, engines, piping, etc., 
for which there is always a receptive market with an attractive recovery. 


A careful investigation of the success recently achieved in foreign countries by 
“Ship breaking” concerns will convince you of the advisability of promptly communicat- 
ing with the Navy Department.

Air Compressors 


Efficiency at Full and 
Partial Loads 


The volume of air required will vary with your production 
and it is hardly possible to predict what this will be at all 
times. The question, therefore, comes down to the instal- 
lation of an air compressor which not only meets your 
maximum requirements, but also operates efficiently at 
partial loads. 


Class “PRE” direct-connected electric motor driven com- 
pressors are regulated by the 5-step Clearance Control 
which causes the compressor to operate at any one of the 
five different load points, depending upon the demand for 
air. 

With this Control, the Class “PRE” eompreccor will de- 
liver full, three-quarter, one-half, one-quarter or none of 
its capacity, and thé horsepower required will be practically 
in proportion to the air output. 

The Clearance Control is entirely automatic, being gov- 
erned by a predetermined variation in air receiver 
pressure. 

We will be glad to tell you more about class 


“PRE’’ Compressors. Meanwhile, request Bulletin 
3126 which describes these machines in detail.

Oil Purifiers 


will protect her machinery 
and economize on oil 


The new White Star liner Majestic displaces 56,000 tons, develops 
91,000 horsepower, and will easily maintain a speed of 26 knots under 
favorable weather conditions. Her builders are insuring her machinery by 
installing De Laval Oil Purifiers to maintain the purity of her lubricating oil. 


They know that besides giving her machinery longer life, the De Lavals 
will quickly pay for themselves by the saving of oil they effect. On the 
Majestic it will never be necessary to pump used oil overboard. Instead, 
after each period of use it will be passed through the De Laval Oil Purifiers 
and returned to the lubricating system with: its efficiency equal to new. 


De Laval Oil Purifiers are protecting the vital 
parts of more inan 7OO marine power plants. 
More than 300 of them are used on U. S. naval 
vessels alone, where they have proved their 
ability to stand up under the most severe service 


conditions. 


De Laval Bulletins Nos. 102 and 103 tell how you can 
safeguard machinery and save oil on your ships by the 


De Laval Method. Write for them.

The Foster Boiler 


Several of the most important features of a 
marine boiler have been briefly reviewed during 
the past year. All of these fundamental facts 
presented consecutively in their relative import- 
ance make clear the present-day marine boiler 
situation and its future trend. 


During the previous year we gave specific cases 
of performance, fuel economy and other im- 
portant facts relating to ships equipped with 
Foster Boilers. The many requests for our cata- 
log show that marine engineers have been follow- 
ing this series of facts. 


The performance of the Foster Boiler in marine 
service has given it a well deserved reputation 
for safety, economy, capacity and low cost that is 
fast making it the leading marine water tube 
boiler. The continued highly satisfactory per- 
formance of Foster Boilers at sea has resulted in 
several duplicate installations being made. 


During the coming year we expect to add many 
new friends to our already large number and also 
give still more evidences of reliable operation. 


We shall be glad to send a copy of the Foster 
Catalog to anyone interested in marine boilers.

You Can Get More Speed 


From the Same Boilers and Use Less Fuel 
By Installing 


De Laval Geared Turbines 


De Laval 3,300-hp. compound, double-geared marine turbine; turbine speed 
3,200 r.p.m.; propeller speed 90 r.p.m. 


IVE 10,500-ton tankers were recently refitted with De Laval Compound turbines and double- 

reduction gears. The substitution of De Laval geared turbines for the original equipment 
made it possible to raise the speed materially without any increase in boiler or condenser ca- 
pacity. Compared with similar vessels driven by reciprocating engines, approximately a knot 
and a half greater speed is obtained from 10 per cent less total steam. 


De Laval turbines are of the impulse type, with large clearances, and can be quickly 
reversed, permitting rapid and easy maneuvering. An interlocking gear prevents admission 
of steam to both ahead and astern tur- 
bines at the same time. 


Over 2,000,000 hp. of De Laval gears 
are giving satisfactory service. De 
Laval gears are practically noiseless in 
a operation, which is not only an indica- 
tion of perfect cutting, high efficiency 
and long life, but also is necessary for 
proper attention, since trouble in ma- 
chinery is most often detected by 
hearing. 


Our engineers will be glad to submit 
further details upon receipt of par- 


De Laval 3,300-hp. double-geared marine turbine, with cas- ticulars relating to proposed installa- 
ing covers removed. tions.

An Efficient 
Pipe Covering

Combustible y, 
Material 


The combustible or inflammable element in some pipe 
coverings runs as high as 20 to 22 per cent. Under 
low temperatures such coverings may possibly remain a 
long time unimpaired but high temperatures will soon 
char the inner zone or layers. Bulk having been re- 
duced, the covering will sag, air currents will run along 
the under side of the pipe and a continual loss of heat 
will take place. 


85% Magnesia possesses, in addition to other essen- 
tial qualities, the virtue of heat-resistance without im- 
pairment. There is nothing combustible in 85% 
Magnesia. Even tests with temperatures from 700 to 
900 deg. F., continued for months, show only a calcina- 


caer taeeaneaninerammememeeenen 


tion, which actually increased the efficiency of the cover- 
ing about three per cent. 


85% Magnesia taken from pipes after twenty years’ 
use may be placed on other heated surfaces, and will 
keep on doing its good work.

Equipment, in most cases, is the reliability of the machine. Can 
it be absolutely depended upon to perform the work? An en- 
forced shut-down of the refrigerating machine while on a voyage 
may mean the loss of a large portion of the ship stores, or perhaps 
of the cargo. 


York Refrigerating Machines have demonstrated their absolute 
reliability by more than thirty-five years of satisfactory service, 


which has given them a high reputation throughout the refrigerating 
field. 


Hundreds of vessels now plying the seven seas employ York 
Mechanical Refrigeration, to the satisfaction of their crews and 
profit of the owners. We invite all shipping interests to investi- 
gate the York Systems of Marine Refrigeration, and believe it 
will prove profitable to them.

The Boiler Maker’s and Sheet Metal Worker's 
Chief Helper 


The Layout for Boilermakers is the only work which deals ex- 
clusively with the subject of laying out boilers and sheet metal 
work. It is thoroughly practical; only those problems which bear 
directly on the every-day work of boiler shops being included. 


How to lay out a tubular boiler, a Scotch boiler and a locomo- 
tive boiler, lay out and construction of steel stacks, triangulation, 
repairing locomotive and other types of boilers and miscellaneous 
problems in laying out are among the subjects included. 


Mathematics have been avoided as much as possible, and lay- 
outs are described simply and clearly, in the order in which an 
apprentice would be given them. 


The chapter on laying out by triangulation takes up a few 
simple problems, showing the method, and how it may be applied 
to any problem. The miscellaneous problems are a collection of 
practical laying out jobs which have been applied to actual shop 
work, and include tank work, elbows, uptakes, and general light 
metal work. 


The layout of different types of boilers includes not only the — 
layout of the material for an actual boiler, but all the calculations 
which must be made to determine the size of the different parts.

The Typical Maag Tooth 


For Strength—Use the Gear 
with the Strongest Tooth 


Maag Gears are strong where strength counts most. At the base 
of the teeth, where the ordinary pinion is often weakest, Maag 
teeth are always strongest. This feature of Maag Gear design dis- 
tinguishes them from other gears. The extra metal—see diagrams 
in circle above—placed at the point of greatest stress increases the 
margin of safety. It assures freedom from tooth breakage. It 
keeps Maag gears on the job under conditions that cut short the 
life of ordinary gears. 


You need strong, slow wearing, long-lived gears in your equipment. 
Maag Gears are produced in sizes from 2 inches to 40 feet in diam- 
eter and in spur, helical, spiral and herringbone types—a selection to 
cover any of your needs.

From Seattle to Nome, Alaska,

16,000 miles in all—is the record 
made by the “Bender Brothers” on 
her first trip with her new 100 
H.P. “C-O” engine. 


Her skipper says that even in 
the heaviest weather in the ice 
bound Arctic, her engine performed 
steadily and drove the schooner at 
an average speed of seven and 
one-half knots. 


“C-O” oil engines, 30 H.P. to 
300 H.P., using low priced fuel oils, 
have established records for -un- 
usual fuel and operating economy 
on all classes of work craft in all

They are simple and sturdy in 
construction, without carburetors, 
igniters, timers, switches, or mag- 
netos. Easy to start and operate— 
inexpensive to maintain.

WELDING EFFICIENCY 


ELDING material 

made from unsound 
ingots, cannot be expected to 
flow evenly or to produce 
welds that are free from 
pinholes, soft, hard or brittle 
spots, etc., even if applied by 
the best welder. 


The skilled operator can 
correct an improper flame 
or arc—he can, if necessary, 
readjust, reshape or reclean 
the surface to be welded but 
he cannot alter the com- 
position of the welding 
material. 


Quality welding material is 
as essential as quality weld- 
ing equipment and quality 
operators.

got (99.84% pure iron), free 
from physical imperfections 
and of such chemical analy-

troducing other elements 
present in the welding pro- 
cess are reduced to a min- 
imum.

ordinary marine paints—good paint al-

We show here just one example from our 
large line of presses for Bending Pipe, Rods, 
Shafts, Angles, Beams and Structural Shapes, 
etc. 


This machine works on water pressure of 1500 lbs. per square inch, 
The pins are interchangeable in any of the holes. The ram is 
double ended and is actuated by two cylinders, enabling the 
operator to exert force from cither side of the table. The valves 
are placed in one body, ard connecting levers at either side of 
the press govern the movements completely. 


We build hydraulic presses for every purpose where hydraulic 
pressure is a possibility—also pumps, accumulators, valves, fittings, 
packings, shears, riveters, punches, jacks, etc.

at high pressures. Not affected by 
cold air drafts. Most effective pro- 
tection against injuries to boilers and 
workmen. Easily applied to all types 
of gauge glass fittings. 

When filled with WATER the Reflex 
Gage always appears BLACK. When 
empty it instantly shows WHITE. 
No mistake possible. This feature 
alone is worth many times the cost 
of the Reflex.

You use large turnbuckles for temporary 
fastenings in the construction of ships and 
when making repairs. Each time a turn= 
buckle is used the workman must find a 
wrench or bar with which to turn the buckle. 
How much time does that workman lose 
while hunting that wrench or bar? 

When the turnbuckle must be loosened the 
same proceedure must be used. More time iost.

The Wager Furnace Bridge Wail has proved its value 
in actual use under all conditions. It has been giving eco- 
nomical service for years without repairs in the fleets of 
many of the steamship and railroad companies, as well as 
scores of ships for the United States Government. Equally 
serviceable for marine or stationary boilers using either hard 
or soft coal.

Hammer 
Motor 

Drive 


The Bradley Hammer has been found practically in- 
dispensable for forging liners in shipyards. Accurate 
and rapid, these hammers attain big results in many kinds 
of forgings. They are built to stand the strain of con- 
tinuous work. 


Pressure on the foot treadle starts the hammer by 
bringing the idler pulley against the drive belt. When 
the treadle is released a brake stops the hammer. 

Both the speed and force of the blow are thus com- 
pletely under control of the operator.

What Is Your Advertising Dollar Buying? 


High prices of materials and increased overhead have made neces- 


sary a stricter economy along mercantile lines. 


Advertising should be considered as well as the commodities in 
which merchants deal. 


By choosing only those publications whose circulation is accurately 
measured, you not only practice economy in your advertising, but are 
assured that your money is buying a definite quantity of circulation. 


MARINE ENGINEERING AND SHIPPING AGE’S circulation 
is measured by the Audit Bureau of Circulations. Advertising placed in 
its columns is an economical investment.

Good Ships Deserve 
Viking Marine Engine Oil 


\VESING Marine Engine Oil — for 
thrust bearing and reciprocating en- 
gine lubrication—is the latest develop- 
ment among the Sun Marine Oils. It 
conforms in efficiency with the high stand- 
ards maintained for years in the famous 


Sun XX Marine Oil. 


Viking Engine Oil, by reason of a 
special patented refining process, will form 
a perfect and lasting emulsion with either 
salt or fresh water. 


The body of this emulsion may be 
varied from a heavy pastelike substance 
to any consistency by the simple addition 
of a larger percentage of water. 


For lubrication of thrust bearings an 
emulsion of Viking Oil with from 50 to 
75 per cent water is recommended. 


When used for main bearings without 
the addition of water, Viking Oil has 
high viscosity and extremely low internal 
frictional values. It will absorb any 
water that may find its way into the bear- 
ings and will feed indefinitely through a 
wick without clogging the pores. 


Although having the saponifiable value. 


Cet 


of oils highly compounded with blown 
rape seed, Viking Marine Engine Oil 
will not deteriorate and become rancid 
with age. 


In addition, Viking Oil is neutral in 
reaction and contains no fatty acids, thus 
eliminating the corrosion of metal parts 
produced by the high acid content of 
most marine oils. It is unaffected by low 
temperatures. 


The Sun Company is one of the 
world’s largest producers, refiners and 
shippers of petroleum products. Its out- 
put of lubricating oils alone exceeds a 
million and a half gallons per week. 


The Sun Company has specialized for 
a quarter century in lubricating oils. It 
has developed into an organization of 
lubrication experts, its aim being to sup- 
ply accurate and efficient lubrication in- 
stead of just “‘oil.”’ 


The choice of a lubricant for any par- 
ticular purpose demands expert advice. 
Engineers of the Sun Company are avail- 
able to make an analysis of your lubrica- 
tion requirements and specify the right 
oils to meet them. This service is free.

United States Steamboat Inspection Service, 
General Rules and Regulations, Ocean—Rule III, 


Paragraph 37, specifies: 


“Where more than one lifeboat is served 
under one set of davits, means shall be provided 
that will prevent davit tackles from twisting or 
capsizing, and that will permit the tackles 
being readily rounded up for the purposes of 
launching the remaining lifeboat under such 
davits.”

OF THE 


STEWARD BLOCKS 


1. They will not capsize or 
topple. 

2. Non-Twisting features sup- 
plied. 


3. Low center of gravity. 


4, Extra large bearing sur- 
faces. 


5. Free running sheaves. 
6. Accessible oil holes.

SIMPLE AS A DOOR KNOB. 
STRONG AS A GUN BREECH BLOCK 


The whole operation of loosening the dogs 
and opening the port is accomplished by 
merely turning one handle, and the break- 
age of glass by uneven pressure is avoided, 
as the port is opened and closed mechani- 
cally. This operation is controlled by one 
handle, which operates the ring gear, the 
four lugs releasing or wedging simul- 
taneously, and the light opens or closes by 
means of a spiral gear worked by a spiral 
section of the ring gear. ALL sizes— 
with or without Deadlight. Write for 
Bulletin No. 52.
